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.

We are looking for an urban drainage advisor with sewer hydraulic modelling experience.

This is an exciting and busy time for the wastewater sector.

You will join an experienced and supportive national team working to design and implement new regulatory approaches, enabling strategic change in the way we regulate and work with sewerage companies in delivering their storm and emergency overflow improvement programmes.

You will apply your experiences of building and using sewer hydraulic and modelling tools to inform our guidance to the sector and assure programme delivery.

Working proactively with Environment Agency teams and external organisations, the role will lead the development of audit processes for water quality investigations carried out under the Storm Overflows Assessment Framework and Environment Act. You will also be responsible for co-developing training courses on Urban Pollution Management (UPM), responding to technical queries, and coaching staff on sewerage and water quality investigations.

We’re a dispersed team and work with a wide range of teams across the country involved in water industry regulation and water quality planning.

Responding to incidents is a central part of what we do. You’ll have the option 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 should you choose to have one.

The team

This post is part of the national Water Quality Regulatory Development team in the Water Regulation directorate.

The team is dispersed throughout the country. The successful candidate should be able to work on their own initiative while maintaining effective communication with internal and external customers.

We promote a positive, inclusive, and supportive culture where everyone feels valued. We use evidence, expertise, and innovation to enhance and support delivery, influence policy, legislation and secure resources.

Experience/skills required

A relevant degree such as civil engineering, geography or environmental science is desirable, although alternatives may be considered, as will demonstration of relevant continued professional experience.

You will have experience of sewer modelling and/or river quality impact modelling carried out for Urban Pollution Management (UPM) studies, including model audits. You will also have knowledge of environmental planning and the regulation of Water and Sewerage Companies.

As well as technical knowledge, you will need to have excellent organisational skills and be effective at coaching others. Experience of embedding new approaches into our/your business will help, as the role will involve developing new processes through collaborative relationships across dispersed teams.
