About The Role
Rutland County Council are seeking an Environmental Compliance Officer to ensure the safe and legally compliant running of the Council’s waste sites, and to carry out education and enforcement activities across the county.
The Environmental Compliance Officer is a hands-on role working as part of a small team. You will be working alongside external contractors and local residents to ensure the safe, efficient and legally compliant delivery of the Council’s environmental services.
The role includes working on site at the Council’s Household Waste Recycling Centres (HWRCs) as the Technically Competent Manager, providing supervision to the external contractor to ensure their operations fully meet the conditions of the Environment Agency permits. The role also covers all areas of environmental enforcement – from providing education and supporting local residents, to carrying out formal enforcement action.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
