Equal Opportunities
Tunbridge Wells – Working for Equality. We welcome applications from all sections of the community.
Safeguarding
The Council is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and vulnerable adults, and expects all employee and volunteers to share this commitment.



Mid Kent Environmental Health is a highly successful shared service that covers the three Kent local authorities of Tunbridge Wells, Maidstone, and Swale. We are looking for a passionate environmental health professional to join the Environmental Protection Team based in Tunbridge Wells. The Council operates a hybrid model combining working at home and from the office, taking a flexible approach to strike the right balance for officers and service delivery.
For this exciting opportunity we are looking for an individual who has excellent communication skills, is passionate about environmental health, and is a strong team player with a positive attitude.
As an Environmental Health Officer in our EP Team no two days are the same. You will manage your own varied caseload, as well as working with and supporting other team members to undertake a wide range of regulatory activities including taking formal action in line with regulatory requirements where required.
You will be involved in various areas of EP work including investigating commercial and residential nuisance complaints, permitting inspections, calibrating air quality equipment, investigating bonfires and drainage issues, sampling private water supplies, and reviewing documents for licensing or planning as a statutory consultee. We are able to provide training and development to the successful candidate in the specialist roles of acoustics, air quality and contaminated land.
The post holder will be a highly motivated, flexible, organised individual, with excellent customer service skills, and able to communicate with people at different levels as appropriate.
The post mainly covers work in the Tunbridge Wells and Maidstone areas, however there will be times when it will need to cover the Swale area to meet service demand.
Whilst experience of working in this or a similar role is an advantage, this role would also be suitable for someone who is newly qualified in environmental health and looking to take the first step in their career.
Benefits include:
<ul>
<li>26 days annual leave (increasing to 29 days after 5 years Local Government service).</li>
<li>Membership of the Local Government Pension Scheme and essential car user allowance.</li>
<li>Hybrid working and flexibility to support work/life balance</li>
<li>Free parking near the Town Hall</li>
<li>Free tea, coffee and wellbeing perks like an EAP, flu jabs, eyecare vouchers and more</li>
</ul>
