Working as a Flood and Coastal Risk Management Officer, you will be working at the very heart of this organisation, helping to protect people and property from flooding.
Flooding represents a crucial challenge both now and into the future as the impacts of climate change become apparent. Having a strategic overview of all sources of flooding, the Environment Agency has a key role in shaping our response to this challenge moving forwards.
Responsibilities will include:

- The collection, analysis, and interpretation of flood data to support project development.
- Positively working with our customers and partners in supporting the provision of flood risk information.
- Supporting our senior advisors with the development of our flood risk management projects or supporting other Risk Management Authorities [RMAs] in the development of their projects.

It is our ambition to champion diversity through building a workforce as diverse as the communities we serve.

There are also opportunities to develop further academic/professional qualifications.
The post is full-time although requests for other work patterns will be considered.
- The team 1- The Partnership and Strategic Overview teams focus on four areas - evidence (data, modelling and mapping), strategic overview and planning (overview of flood risk from all sources and tactical direction), project development and delivery (including with other RMAs) and regulation (e.g., planning consultations and environmental permits).
We aim to create more resilient catchments so flooding causes less harm to people, results in less damage and those affected can return to normal more quickly.
- Experience/skills required 1- We're looking for people with a keen interest in working within the flood and coastal risk management sector. You’ll have:

- A understanding or interest in river processes, hydrology and the impact of flooding.
- An ability to work on your own initiative, in teams and with customers using good communication skills to develop and maintain relationships.
- Good problem solving capabilities including developing innovative solutions.
- A track record of delivering work by planning, tracking, gathering, and maintaining data/information.
- A desire to lead your own learning and development.
- Flexible to the needs of the organisation and open to new ways of working.
- A good working knowledge of Geographic Information Systems (GIS) would be desirable.

As an entry level grade we welcome all backgrounds, especially those with an interest in engineering, geography or science discipline.
