Role description and task arrangements
Do you know how to quickly switch between policy, advice and implementation? Then the position of Policy officer Public Order & Safety (OOV) at the municipality of Schiedam is something for you!
The municipality of Schiedam strives to provide its residents with a safe living environment. Result areas of the team include public order, residential nuisance, youth crime, and crisis management. But the person-oriented approach is also part of the team's tasks, as are policies around prostitution, coffee shops, the hospitality industry or events. In recent years, much effort has been put into combating undermining.
Team Security
Team Safety consists of the components Security & Crisis Management, Supervision and Enforcement, and intervention on residential nuisance and undermining. Each section is managed by a team leader. As policy officer OOV you fall within the section Security & Crisis Management.
What will you do?
As policy officer OOV at the municipality of Schiedam, no day is the same. In this dynamic role you switch effortlessly between the roles of policy maker, advisor and implementer. You know the various scaling-up routes and are not averse to complex and politically sensitive cases. One moment you are advising the mayor on various aspects of his Public Order & Safety portfolio and not much later you are communicating with the police about a nuisance incident. In addition, you represent the municipality of Schiedam in both local and regional consultations with a wide range of chain partners. Together with your OOV colleagues you set the course to realize the ambitions from the implementation plan. In addition, as part of cluster OOV you are also responsible for the acute and current security challenges in the municipality in various areas.
In doing so, your responsibilities include the following:
Job Requirements:
We are looking for a colleague who gets excited by safety challenges. You are stress resistant and do not get easily upset. You can switch quickly and know how to hold your own in a dynamic environment, paying attention to the various interests at stake. You are willing to learn and are open to guidance and coaching to develop into a senior OOV employee.
A professional work ethic is important, but we also want our new colleague to feel welcome and fit in with the team. We work closely together, sometimes under great pressure. We therefore find it important to be able to fall back on each other and blow off steam with each other every now and then.

We strive to interview suitable candidates quickly. If there is a match, we continue the process immediately. We close the vacancy when we have found the right candidate, so don't wait too long to apply!
