North Lincolnshire Council is looking for someone to become a school crossing patrol attendant in the town and has similar vacancies elsewhere.
The authority has announced it is to give existing and new school crossing patrols a £240 bonus in the form of high street vouchers.
There are 60 approved School Crossing Patrol sites in North Lincolnshire, and six of these have vacancies.
The council is looking to employ more people to work on these sites to protect children and young people walking to, and from, schools in North Lincolnshire.
Patrols will receive the incentive in the form of high street vouchers. They will be sent a specially printed cheque to exchange at the voucher shop. There will be a range of high street vouchers to choose from. Receiving a cheque will be dependant on whether they have been employed at specific times of the year.

School crossing patrols in North Lincolnshire work a minimum of five hours per week and a maximum of eight and a half hours per week depending on the site, term time only. It is split into two shifts a day, one at the start of the school day and the other at the end of the school day.
A North Lincolnshire Council spokeswoman, said: “School Crossing Patrol is a valuable and rewarding job for people of all ages. It is a service that is greatly appreciated by local communities, as it gives children and young people the independence to walk to school safely. Crossing Patrols are a familiar and integral part of the journey to school for many children.
“Today's Crossing Patrols are better equipped to carry out their job than ever before. They are trained in the operation of the school crossing patrol point, but also in issues such as dealing with aggression.
“We hope that by offering an incentive more people will want to take up this rewarding job of School Crossing Patrol as it is an important role in North Lincolnshire.
