Crynodeb

The Environment Agency are fully committed to having an inclusive workforce to reflect the communities we serve. We welcome applications from all sections of the community wishing to join a workforce which embraces difference and welcomes everyone.

This is an exciting opportunity for a skilled and enthusiastic professional to join us in developing the Environment Agency’s incident management service in Hertfordshire and North London. Within a team of emergency planners, you will lead our incident training and exercising portfolio. You will work with local and national colleagues to ensure our staff working at strategic, tactical and operational levels are prepared to respond to all types of environmental and flooding incidents.

You will:
• Develop and maintain an incident training and exercising plan, prioritising needs around the risk and resource available
• Coordinate a local network of incident role leads; advise on and participate in the creation and delivery of training and exercising, ensure it is delivered competently and effectively by using assured standards
• Collaborate with colleagues nationally, contributing to the development our incident training and exercising across the wider organisation
• Support the team to carry out its wider functions including reviewing existing and emerging risks, emergency planning, and training and exercising with internal & external partners
• Support our multi-agency work with external partners through participating in Local and Borough Resilience Forum engagement

Responding to incidents is a central part of what we do. You will be required 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 and workplace adjustments will be available to support you with your incident role.

We ensure the best delivery of incident response to protect communities and the environment, whilst fulfilling our responsibilities as a Category 1 responder.
