Job summary:
ESS was established by the UK Withdrawal from the European Union (Continuity) (Scotland) Act 2021, which received royal ascent in January 2021.
ESS has been set up to ensure environmental laws and standards are adhered to in Scotland, replacing the European Union's scrutiny and enforcement role after Brexit.
The remit of ESS covers a broad range of environmental law, including all aspects of environmental protection and harm, particularly in relation to human beings and their enjoyment of the environment.
ESS' role is to scrutinise, investigate and secure improvements in public authorities' compliance with environmental law, the effectiveness of environmental law, and the way it is being implemented and applied in Scotland.
The body has published a Strategic Plan, setting out how it will operate and function, including how it will act objectively, impartially, proportionately and transparently.
The organisation will carry out its role by:
- monitoring information about the quality of the environment in Scotland and the effectiveness of environmental law, including representations brought forward by citizens and interested groups
- selecting a small number of cases for detailed investigation, prioritising cases where there is the greatest risk to the environment
- working with public authorities, where necessary, to seek to agree changes in practice to reflect environmental law, or develop advice on recommended changes to the law to improve its effectiveness
The Business Support Officer will support the existing and expanding work within the Corporate Services and Communications (CSC)Team, as well as providing support to the wider organisation.
Job description:

- provide administrative support for general ESS corporate service requirements, including; information gathering and management; document retention and reporting; general correspondence; and routine compliance and monitoring checks, such as gathering carbon footprint data
- assist with ESS internal and external stakeholder management, through the co-ordination of meetings
- provide administrative support to the CSC team, to ensure tasks are delivered on time and of the right quality, through developing a sound knowledge of relevant operational ESS policies and procedures to ensure compliance is maintained
- provide adhoc administrative support to the wider Investigations, Compliance and Standards Team and the Strategy and Analysis team
To note:
ESS uses the finance system Scottish Government Enterprise Accounting System (SEAS), and the Scottish Government content management system Electronic Record and Document Management system (eRDM).
All training requirements will be provided.Person specification:
Essential Criteria
- Strong IT skills, particularly in Microsoft Word and Excel.
- A strong customer focus, with excellent communications skills to work with a range of internal and external stakeholders.
