Summary
The Environment Agency is fully committed to having an inclusive workforce to reflect the communities we serve. We don’t just talk about diversity; we seek it, embrace it, and live it, for the benefit of our staff, our communities, and our environment.
We are looking for a person with a hunger to improve the organisation by joining the Assurance and Risk Department. You will use your considerable talents and depth of knowledge to advise and act on whistleblowing, fraud, and money laundering concerns. You will also advise on conduct, conflict of interest and business-related ethical matters.
Our focus is to promote a climate where concerns about wrongdoing or error in the organisation can be raised in a confident and supportive environment and then to learn and improve as a result. The role will include managing whistleblowing, anti-fraud and anti-money laundering practices, including receiving concerns, triage, commissioning investigations, formulating actions, tracking, and reporting. Raising awareness and promotion of the procedures will be significant in helping the organisation to do things right.
You will, through these subject areas, work across the full extent of the business, with external bodies and customers. All the work is important, highly sensitive or confidential. Ultimately, you’ll make sure, through our work, that the organisation meets its policy and legal obligations but also supports people when they raise concerns and dilemmas. Much of the work is time critical and you should be prepared to experience significant peaks in demand.
Responding to incidents is a central part of what we do. You will be asked to have an incident role and make yourself available to respond to incidents or provide business continuity support during an incident. This may attract an additional payment and full training will be available to support you with your incident role.
The team
As Part of the Assurance and Risk Department, this team specialises in fraud, anti-money laundering, conduct, whistleblowing and ethics and works with other teams involved in projects and programme delivery to improve the risk landscape, assure our activities and can include our response to any matters of corporate concern.
You will be the manager for a Project Support Officer.
Experience/skills required
We are looking for someone who can operate across the organisation including engaging with senior managers, as an experienced influencer and a great communicator. You’ll be happy working collaboratively, able to challenge firmly and constructively when needed. You will drive improvement through policy and practice and display empathy and skill in dealing with controversial situations and concerned or worried individuals. You will be a reassuring presence and display impeccable integrity and attention to detail.
Experience in a relevant role or field is essential and professional membership in a relevant field is desirable.
You will manage a lot of detailed and confidential information, you’ll be comfortable delivering through others but have an eye for detail when something isn’t quite right and be able to work with technical processes and people to find a solution that works for all.
