This role provides consistent and reliable assistance to the Network Assets Team Leader and others within the Transport group with their duties concerning regulatory and asset matters.

You will act as asset protector to ensure compliance with the DCC Roading Bylaw, Local Government Act 2002 and other Council polices and bylaws are met to prevent the unnecessary deterioration of the roading asset.

• Clear and proficient written and oral communication skills.
• Ability to establish and maintain effective working relationships.
• Ability to provide professional service at all times and handle potentially difficult customers in a way that maintains Transport professional image.
• Experience of working in a team environment and collaboratively managing a workload which is shared with colleagues.

In addition to the above you will have excellent customer services skills and the ability to be professional and courteous when dealing with customers, including being able to explain technical matters in a non-technical way.
