Summary
If you’re part of the Environment Agency, you’re part of the solution. Working with us means protecting and improving the environment and tackling issues of national importance. We’re based across England, and our responsibilities span industry regulation, flood defences, land contamination, water quality, fisheries and conservation.
Such a broad scope of work calls for diverse, multi-skilled teams. Together, we’ll promote sustainable growth, tackle climate change and secure a better future for everyone. We’re fully committed to being an inclusive employer and ensuring equal opportunities for everyone. We welcome flexible working patterns for all our vacancies, including job share.

You’ll be studying for a professional qualification or recently qualified as an Associate Surveyor and will work alongside our Estates Surveyors and Senior Estates Surveyors as you provide a professional service to our business. The role supports hybrid, part time and flexible working, so we’ll provide you with plenty of support as you build the foundations of your career.

You may also be asked to provide assistance to the acquisition and compensation programme for major capital works.
Responding to incidents is an important part of what we do, and with this in mind you’ll have an incident role and should be ready to make yourself available to respond or provide business continuity support. This may attract an additional payment, and full training and alternative working arrangements will be available to support you.
