Apprentice Environmental Health Officer

We’re excited to offer an incredible opportunity that will likely shape the future for the successful applicant. 

You would be employed full time by Lichfield District Council for a period of five years, and attend the University of Wolverhampton for one day each week to complete a BSc(Hons) in Environmental Health without having to pay any tuition fees.

The course is accredited by the Chartered Institute of Environmental Health and would lead to you becoming a Registered Environmental Health Practitioner (REnvH).  The remainder of each week, over the course of the five years, would be spent rotating through placements in environmental protection, food safety, health & safety, housing, licensing, planning enforcement and emergency planning. 

You’ll soon have your own caseload, and you’ll develop knowledge, skills and experiences that will set you up for a successful, demanding and exciting career as an environmental health officer.  On completion of the apprenticeship, we hope to offer a permanent post in one of our teams.

 The opportunity might suit people who have recently left education at age 18, those looking for a career change, those already working in a regulatory or enforcement role, and those who already have a degree.  If successful, you would be working and studying alongside our existing Apprentice Environmental Health Officer who started in 2024.
