Anti-social behaviour and community safety officer

Role overview

An anti-social behaviour and community safety officer works within local authorities, housing associations, or police services to investigate complaints, engage communities, and coordinate responses to anti-social behaviour (ASB) and community safety issues. Apprentices learn to use legal powers such as civil injunctions, community protection notices, and acceptable behaviour agreements alongside mediation and early intervention approaches. This role can lead to senior ASB officer, community safety manager, or specialist enforcement positions.
