Do you want to work for an organisation that values difference and includes everyone?
Then the Environment Agency is the organisation for you!
We are 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.
It’s an exciting time to be working on water resources management. The pressures of climate change and population growth mean that it will become even more challenging to allocate this precious resource between different uses in the future while protecting and enhancing the water environment.
We are investing in our business now so that we can innovate and transform the way we manage water resources in the future. This includes further developing and embedding a new digital Water Resources Licensing Service into our activities and promoting the opportunities to our stakeholders. These roles will play a key part in embedding the Service locally, advocating the Service with staff and customers and maximising the benefits of our significant investment. You will play a key role locally in Herts and North London, focussing on innovation and effectiveness of systems, ensuring a smooth transition as we move away from older data systems.
You will drive forward improvements in your local area to modernise water resources and will play an effective role with peers in other areas, working together as part of a national network.
Working closely with Environment Agency colleagues, Defra teams and external stakeholders, you will use technology to improve local management of water resources and have excellent Continuous Improvement ethos.
The team
The team is at the centre of local environmental planning and regulation. We use evidence to better understand the pressures on the local environment and focus resources to improve things for wildlife and people.
Our area is exciting! We have chalk rivers, urban catchments and diverse communities to serve.
You will also be part of a national network helping to shape the development of the digital Service, making best use of its features locally.
Experience/skills required
You will have experience of:
• Managing data systems;
• Working effectively with colleagues and advising stakeholders;
• Communicating complex information so it is easily understood;
• Analysing and securely handling data;
• Continuous improvement.
In addition, you will have an understanding of:
- Water resources regulation;
- Agile project management;
- The importance of benefits realisation;
- The legislative changes in water resources.
Your day-to-day activities will include:
- Leading the roll out of water abstraction alerts;
- Working with abstraction licence holders to get abstraction data back sooner
- Increasing the number of holders registered on the service;
- Ensure they have an overall understanding of licencing in the local area:
