London Borough of Hackney is looking for talented, ambitious and customer focused individuals to join our busy Parking Appeals and Debt Recovery Team. Parking penalties and subsequent debt recovery action are often contentious issues, which require a sensitive approach in order to balance competing traffic management demands with the individual circumstances of our customers.
Our Debt Recovery and Appeals Team deals with more than 1300 appeals per year, which include appeals to the Environment and Traffic Adjudicators (London Tribunals), the Traffic Enforcement Centre witness statements and debt recovery court hearings. Many of these appeals and hearings have to be considered and defended in front of the Independent Adjudicators and in some cases Court Judges. We are proud to say that, over the last three years our service achieved the highest performance amongst all London local authorities, with 80% of all cases going in the Council’s favour at the Independent Adjudicators Tribunal. Our Appeals and Debt Recovery officers are experts in their field, and they are looking for more people to join us and share our success.
We believe in a first class customer experience, and we are looking for bright people who can bring our three service promises to life;
- Providing fair outcomes for all our customers.
- Getting things done right the first time.
- Simplifying and continually improving our processes.
As the Appeals and Debt Recovery Officer, you will be expected to consider and make decisions against appeals lodged at the Independent Adjudication Service and in many cases the County Court. You will be required to investigate parking related formal appeals and compile comprehensive evidence packs for hearings at both London Tribunals and Courts. You will be tasked with ensuring that clear and compelling evidence is put forward to demonstrate the high quality of our parking schemes, and maintain our status of the best performing authority in the capital.
You will need to demonstrate a real appreciation of the complexities involved in many of these cases. You will work to help motorists close cases at earliest opportunity, whilst also recognising and identifying vulnerable customers and supporting them wherever possible. Finally, you will be responsible for aspects of the management of the council’s contracts with external enforcement providers, such as Enforcement Agents.
You will need to show high standards of customer service at all times, and will also undergo extensive training which will be delivered by our experts, who will equip you with the necessary knowledge, and subsequently a Level 3 NVQ accreditation for the role.
With transport sustainability principles at the heart of our policies, Parking plays an integral part in making our borough one of London’s best places to live and work. We are proud of our achievements and our people, which makes our organisation one of the best employers in the capital.
We go that extra mile for our staff by offering a work environment which is stimulating, fast moving and supportive, giving you the chance to use your skills and develop new ones within a high profile organisation.

<li>Unrivalled pension scheme</li>
<li>Flexible working options (family friendly policy)</li>
<li>Ability to work from home</li>
<li>A comprehensive training and development</li>
<li>A range of discounts, including subsidised gym membership</li>
