Parking Compliance Officer

2 weeks ago


Christchurch, Canterbury, New Zealand Christchurch City Council Full time

Our Parking Compliance Officers are out there every day making sure that parking in the city is kept in order, our children are kept safe at the school gates, and that effective traffic management of special events is in place around the city.

We keep the wheels turning and make sure there's no unnecessary congestion in our city and suburbs so that people can get where they need to be.


Yes, the role of a Parking Compliance Officer can be seen as a real pain-in-the-neck, and it's true that if you take on this role, you may encounter some complex situations and people.

That's where your well-honed life skills and calm demeanour come into play.

You are someone who finds it easy for you to communicate and de-escalate a variety of situations when required, but you'll also have the ability and common sense to know when to walk away from a challenging situation.

You'll have a love for Christchurch, and as a public figure, you'll be seen by the community and our visitors as approachable as they look to you for assistance.

While full support and training is provided, there a few things that you'll need to be successful in this role:

  • Full unblemished New Zealand Drivers Licence to drive a manual motor vehicle and motorcycle
  • if you don't already have one you will need to obtain one in the first 3 months of employment.
  • The ability to pass a Police check to obtain an Enforcement Officer warrant
  • At least 34 years' experience in dealing with people from a wide variety of cultures, nationalities and social diversity.


Ask our officers, they'll tell you that on a sunny day in Christchurch there is no better place to be - soaking up the fresh air and clocking up your daily steps.

This means you're prepared and physically fit enough to do a lot of walking.

You'll also be able to prioritise your day to make sure that you're covering your allocated beat to a high standard.

You'll be comfortable working alone as we have a big area to cover.


Working for the Christchurch City Council allows you to contribute directly to the community and make a positive impact on the lives of residents and visitors.


You will also benefit from:

  • Access to training programmes, workshops, and development opportunities
  • Option to purchase extra leave.
  • Collaboration exposure to wider areas of the organisation
  • Benefits a variety of benefits for Council staff from health schemes to retail discounts.
