The Maritime and Coastguard Agency (MCA) implements the government’s maritime safety policy in the United Kingdom and works to prevent the loss of life and occurrence of pollution on the coast and at sea.
- Safer lives. Safer Ships. Cleaner Seas._

Our vision is to be a world-leading organisation, accelerating the transition to sustainable shipping with non-negotiable safety standards. We put our people, our customers and our planet at the heart of everything we do.

**Job description**:
Within the UK Maritime Services (UKMS), the Ship Standards teams have responsibility for developing, and maintaining, UK policies and regulations relating to a wide range of safety and environmental issues associated with ships and vessels of all sizes (from small pleasure vessels to the largest internationally trading ships).

This provides a dynamic working environment with regular engagement with operational colleagues in other areas of Maritime and Coastguard Agency (MCA), other Government Departments, and other national Maritime Administrations, as well as industry stakeholders.

As the Fishing Safety Policy Advisor it will be your responsibility to take a proactive lead in managing and developing UK policy regulations and guidance, in support of UK government objectives for a safe and commercially successful UK fleet drawing on their own knowledge and also the technical expertise of colleagues.

In addition, you will assist in the handling of policy questions relating to fishing safety raised both internally and externally and providing advice to senior managers in the MCA, DfT, other government departments and Ministers.

This is a fantastic opportunity for a passionate and professional individual to join our team at the MCA and bring change to the fishing industry. This is a varied role, whereby you will have the autonomy to explore different ways of working as well as new and innovate ways of improving safety by liaising with various different stakeholder’s.

This role requires occasional UK and overseas travel which may involve overnight stays and working outside of normal hours, potentially at weekends.

A passport valid for international travel is required.

This role will be based in the Southampton HQ. MCA supports flexible working and operates a hybrid working model between home and office for this role, giving you greater flexibility over where and when you work. Details of the arrangement will be discussed further with your line manager.

**Your responsibilities include but are not limited to**:

- Lead on a specific Policy remit which may include one or more of: inland waterway vessels, high speed craft, small and domestic passenger ships, international passenger ships, dry cargo ships, small commercial vessels, large yachts, sail training ships, fishing vessels, pleasure craft, offshore industry vessels and specialised ship types.
- Work with others in the team to manage Stakeholder Groups and represent MCA at such meetings as well as other meetings, working groups, project groups and external events as required in support of key responsibilities and the work of Stakeholder Groups.
- To contribute to the work of focal points and maintain a positive and proactive role in liaison with MCA consultant surveyors, Technical Performance Manager (TPM) and relevant directorates and branches within MCA, and external stakeholders which have an interest in shipping matters.
- Lead on the drafting of instructions for Government lawyers to facilitate the timely implementation of regulations and draft codes and guidance to implement UK policy for shipping safety. Coordinate the development of associated impact assessments in conjunction with Government economists.
- Develop and maintain an awareness of safety developments in other domestic industries and foreign fishing industries through discussion and liaison with key organisations to consider any learning that can be incorporated in to delivery of fishing safety initiatives.
