Overview
Are you ready to lead a team that’s passionate about protecting our public spaces, tackling enviro-crime, and making Harrow a cleaner, safer, and more vibrant borough? This is your chance to join a forward-thinking council where your work truly matters.
As Enforcement & CCTV Manager, you’ll be at the heart of our mission to restore pride in our streets and keep our communities safe.
