Crynodeb
The Environment Agency are 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.
It’s an exciting time to be involved in planning England’s water resources. Our water supply is under continuing pressure. Drought and dry weather have spread across England after the driest start to year for England since 1976. We have also recently published our National Framework for Water Resources to ensure our future water supply is secure. In this post you will be crucial to its success.
First released in March 2020, the framework broke ground in planning for the nation’s water resources to be more resilient to climate change, droughts, and population growth alongside a new approach to enhancing the environment. The 2025 framework builds significantly on these achievements, reflecting the growing urgency of water resource challenges, to propel integrated, multi-sector planning at national, regional, and local levels.
Your role will be to support activities to deliver and implement the National Framework for Water Resources. This will involve working closely with a range of internal and external stakeholders, including Defra, other regulators, plus representatives from Water Companies, energy and agricultural sectors, and other major water using sectors.
The team
You will join the Water Resources Resilience team, which leads the National Framework for Water Resources and works across water using sectors to improve resilience.
We’re part of the Environment and Business (E&B) Directorate. We inform and deliver the government's key environmental objectives; using evidence, expertise, engagement, and innovation we influence policy and legislation, facilitate, and enhance integrated delivery and, by building trust in the Environment Agency, secure resources to do more for the environment.
Experience/skills required
We welcome applications from those with a good understanding of water resources, but this would also be an opportunity to learn for those outside the field. We would be very interested in hearing from you if you have some or all of the following:
• the ability to manage and deliver projects and programmes
• experience of environmental regulation and planning, particularly water resources such as licensing, environmental regulation, or sustainable abstraction
• experience in aiding reviews of statutory plans or similar
• ability to build and maintain good relationships with internal and external stakeholders a track record of achieving results
We are a dispersed team, so you must be able to work on your own initiative while maintaining effective communication with colleagues.
You’ll have a range of development opportunities and appropriate training will be provided.
