Crynodeb
The Environment Agency is committed to building an inclusive workforce that reflects the communities we serve. We actively seek, embrace, and celebrate diversity. New starters receive full training, support, and all necessary equipment to succeed in their role.
As an Installations Officer specialising in landfill and hazardous waste treatment regulation, you will ensure operators comply with environmental permits through inspections, audits, and data reviews. Your work will focus on high-risk waste treatment sites, including hazardous waste treatment facilities and landfills, where environmental protection is critical. You’ll assess emissions, containment systems, and operational controls, identifying non-compliance and driving improvements.
You’ll work closely with our national permitting service, offering technical advice on permit applications and variations, ensuring conditions and limits are robust and enforceable. Liaising with operators, local communities, partners, and stakeholders is key, especially when addressing concerns around odour, pollution, or waste mismanagement.
Officers manage their own portfolio of sites and hold a warrant under Section 108 of the Environment Act 1995, enabling enforcement action where necessary. A firm but fair approach is essential to uphold environmental standards and protect public health.
Incident response is a vital part of the role. You’ll be trained and expected to participate in environmental incident management, which may attract additional payment.
This post sits within the Lincolnshire & Northamptonshire South Installations Team, based in Kettering or Peterborough. Our team regulates a diverse range of sectors, with a strong emphasis on hazardous waste and landfill operations. A full driving licence will be required.
