Based onsite at Licensing Services, Chapel Street, Bilston, this is a shift based role 13:15-21:15, where no two days are the same. You'll be a key player in keeping our Licensing operations running smoothly-working directly with Licensing Officers, providing expert guidance, and supporting the day to day delivery of a vital public service.

• Assisting Licensing Officers with inspections and regulatory compliance
• Providing hands on support and technical guidance to team members
• Overseeing processes and ensuring best practice is followed
• Helping to train and onboard new colleagues

Although the role has no formal line management responsibilities, you'll play a pivotal role in team leadership by sharing your expertise and ensuring smooth operation of daily tasks.

• Significant experience in Licensing (Hackney Carriage/Private Hire is essential)
• A solid understanding of vehicle inspection processes and procedures
• Strong communication and customer service skills
• A flexible, solution focused approach with the ability to manage competing priorities
• A detail oriented mindset with excellent IT skills

This is a brilliant development opportunity for someone looking to build on your Licensing experience and take on a more senior role with increased responsibility and visibility.

• Corporate Membership at WVActive leisure centres (gym, classes, swimming, sauna & more)
• 24/7 confidential support through our Employee Assistance Programme (Care First)
• Free eye tests for all roles involving regular screen use
• A supportive and collaborative working environment
