Job description
Are you passionate about the rivers, lakes, and coastal waters in Wessex? Do you have an interest in environmental improvements?

We are looking for an enthusiastic, self-motivated individual to take on this critical role in addressing the nutrient challenges in some of our most highly protected environments.
Focusing on catchment plans that will reduce excessive nutrients and improve water quality, you will have the opportunity to use your environmental knowledge, data management skills and project management abilities to lead work across multiple disciplines to facilitate environmental improvements.

You will develop and implement these plans and in doing so you will:

  • bring together monitoring data, modelling, and other evidence on nutrient challenges in key catchments
  • work with internal and external partners to refine the evidence base and identify measures that will result in positive environmental change
  • secure multi agency agreement and drive identified measures through to implementation
  • engage with other relevant catchment strategies, plans, and projects to integrate and address nutrient challenges, and in doing so develop a sustainable future for our environment.

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 alternative working arrangements will be available to support you with your incident role.

The team
  • The Integrated Environment Planning team is a water planning team with specialists in water quality, water resources and river basin planning.
  • We work with Area teams, national colleagues, Natural England partners, water companies and catchment stakeholders.
  • We commission, integrate, analyse, visualise, and share data to help technical teams and area leadership target resources and identify priorities.
  • EP helps to ensure delivery on the ground (EA or partners) is cost-effective and efficient, providing maximum environment benefit.
Experience/skills required
  • You’ll have effective influencing skills and be able to persuade internal teams and external partners to work collaboratively when developing and delivering environmental outcomes.
  • You’ll be diplomatic, sensitive and demonstrate political awareness when dealing with customers and stakeholders.
  • You’ll have experience of applying your analytical skills to explore problems and make proportionate, evidence-based proposals.
  • You’ll have proven organisational skills/discipline and the ability to plan, track, deliver and evaluate work, meeting relevant standards and timescales.
  • You’ll be self-motivated and work under your own initiative and as part of a larger multidisciplinary team.
  • You’ll be an excellent communicator, experienced at making sense of technical information and presenting it in a clear and logical way for audiences ranging from external partners to senior colleagues.
  • Knowledge of the impact and mitigation of excessive nutrients in surface waters would be an advantage.
  • Modelling experience would also be an advantage.
