LB Haringey
Senior Arboricultural Officer (Planning)
Salary: £37,722 - £40,869
Contract Type: Full Time, Permanent

At Haringey, we’re led by ideas – like our recent Your Bike project, which brings together young people eager to get into mechanics and cycling instruction. Or our new, state-of-the-art Tailoring Academy, which helps 100s of young people kick-start their fashion careers. Even simple things such as moving our principal buildings to a 100% renewable energy supplier.

We know that ideas can change the way we deliver our services and make positive, practical impacts on the lives of our residents. That’s why we’re building a community full of energy and creativity, whichever department you work in. If you’re ideas-driven and want to do Haringey proud, this is the place to be.

We are looking for an experienced and confident person to join our busy and expanding Tree and Nature Conservation Team to act as the Councils lead officer providing professional advice and reports on all tree related planning matters.  You will assist planning officers in reviewing and determining planning applications, where trees are a consideration. You will also be responsible for reviewing all applications and notifications for proposed works to trees subject to TPOS or those located in Conservation Areas.

It would be desirable if you hold a Level 6 qualification (Arboricultural Association National Qualification Framework).

Working here isn’t just about the sense of fulfilment you’ll get from your work – Haringey the place has a huge amount to offer. Not only do our fantastic transport connections mean we are just minutes away from central London, but there is also so much to do in the borough itself. Haringey buzzes with entertainment, attitude, artistic and cultural life – through its pubs, clubs, cinemas, theatres, arts centres, community groups and even festivals.

Everybody who works for Haringey Council helps to make our vision for an even better Haringey a reality. Our values – Human, Ambitious, Accountable and Professional – will help us to achieve our ambitions.
