Our Compliance, Policing and On-Street Services (CPOS) Compliance Officer current Job Description and Person Specification.
CPOS Operations no longer have any Compliance Officers roles. All CPOS Operations staff have a common job description of Operations Officer which came into effect after the 2019/20 Transformation and replaced all other frontline role job descriptions. We have attached the current job description of the Operations Officer. We don’t hold a separate person specification document.
If you are considering submitting a further FOI request please think carefully about whether the request is essential at this current time, as answering FOI requests will require the use of limited resources and the attention of staff who could be supporting other essential activity. Where requests are made, please note that our response time may be impacted by the current situation.
If this is not the information you are looking for, or if you are unable to access it for any reason, please do not hesitate to contact me.
