Do you have a passion for the environment? Do you enjoy being outside in any weather? Are you a confident driver? Can you work independently and as part of a team? If so, we are looking for people like you to join our Field Monitoring teams.

About us
If you're part of the Environment Agency (EA), you're part of the solution. Working with us means protecting and improving the environment and tackling issues of national importance. We're based across England, and our responsibilities span industry regulation, flood defences, land contamination, water quality, fisheries and conservation.

Such broad scope of work calls for diverse, multi-skilled teams. Together, we'll promote sustainable growth, tackle climate change and secure a better future for everyone.

Your role with us
As an Environmental Field Officer, you will help us deliver crucial environmental monitoring programmes.

This involves taking part in a variety of fieldwork and collecting samples from rivers, lakes, discharges, boreholes, groundwater sources and coastal waters.

After collecting the samples, you will record the environmental data using mobile technology.

The role also requires a good deal of physical work, as you will need to lift samples and equipment, carry out tasks in or near water and drive a van.

It's challenging work, but you can be sure your efforts are making a positive impact on communities and environment. On top of your core duties, you will also have opportunities to support our incident response initiatives.

What do I need?
You should be ready to work in all weathers and environments. Being able to manage your own health and safety is important, as is good organisational skills.

But the most important thing we are looking for is a passion for the environment and the resilience to succeed.


You'll need to have:

  • A full UK driving licence
  • The ability to swim confidently and work in or near water
  • Effective communication and relationshipbuilding skills
  • The ability to work autonomously, taking decisions and solving problems to achieve positive outcomes
  • The ability to use a range of computer systems and technology

What's in it for you?


You'll benefit from a culture that embraces difference and includes everyone, where you'll feel supported and trusted to do the right thing.

We'll invest in you and allow you to grow and shape your career.

What's more, you'll have access to our great benefits package including:

  • A salary of £20,50-25 days holiday + 8 bank holidays
  • Great career opportunities
  • Maternity, paternity, and adoption leave scheme
  • Generous pension scheme
  • Accruement of hours through our flexitime scheme (up to 15 days a year)
  • A range of flexible working options, plus many more


A small van will be provided and there is the option to start your day and end your day from your home address with an expectation of a daily visit to the contracted base location (Alchemy, Welwyn Garden City) for sample drop offs.
