Planning Officer Dudley LPA - Part Time (29 hours per week) - 12-Month Secondment/FTC
An exciting opportunity on Dudley LPA has been created to support the local and dynamic Planning Team. We’re looking for a Planning Officer who thrives in a fast‑paced environment and who is committed to providing excellent service delivery across all departments and functions of an LPA. This requires a logistical approach to working, whilst managing staffing resilience levels alongside abstractions and deployments of DY assets to support local and force priorities.
You’ll collaborate closely with Line Managers and Planning Teams across the Force to abstract officers to operational deployments and training courses. You will need to ensure MyTime is updated to accurately reflect any changes made to duties. You will have key involvement and oversight of the workings of the LPA including Probation Constable postings, L2 Public Order postings and abstractions, essential officer training and planning, management and oversight of local workforce, and planning of both local and force events – this list is not exhaustive.
Key Responsibilities
* Plan the deployment of resources to pre‑planned and spontaneous events.
* Co‑ordinate and support local and national events.
* Coordinate local policing resilience issues in conjunction with local policing priorities.
* Prepare and plan documentation for presentation.
* Coordinate the rostering and training for police officers and staff for specified courses.
Prospective officers and staff must be held to a higher standard of behaviour and accountability than members of the public, and that therefore their right to privacy can be fettered in certain circumstances. This is to ensure that members of the police are fully aware and accountable for the unique powers entrusted to them and the standards of professional behaviour they swear to uphold.
Benefits
* Fair remuneration with progression opportunities and access to a very competitive pension scheme.
* Enhanced annual leave in addition to public holiday entitlements.
* Discounts across travel, parking, daily costs of living and leisure activities.
* A comprehensive wellbeing package including 24\/7 support, free eye tests and flu jabs.
* Comprehensive benefits including pension, Blue Light Card, and employee assistance programme.
