Job description

**Directorate: Place**

**Starting salary: JG7:

- £31,099 per annum**

**Location: Based in Castlewood, Clevedon**

**Hours: 37 **hours per week**

**Contract: Permanent**

**Closing date: Friday 10 March 2023**

North Somerset is unique in the flood risk challenges that it faces. Around a third of the district is at risk of flooding from the sea, surface water flooding impacts most of our urban and rural communities and groundwater flooding in the form of intermittent springs also adds to the challenge.

As a Flood Risk Officer in the small and dynamic Flood Risk Team, you will have a vital role in ensuring flood risk is managed for residents, businesses and visitors. The authority is also starting to use innovative techniques such as natural flood management and property level flood resilience to manage flood risk.

We are seeking someone with a background in flood risk management, surface water drainage design/approval or coastal management to join the team. You will be working within an experienced team, which will enable further development of skills. The role is varied and exciting, with opportunities to be involved in both inland and coastal aspects of flood risk management.

About the role:

- Supporting us in delivering our Statutory LLFA duties and Coast Protection Authority roles
- Reviewing and advising on sustainable drainage matters as part of the planning process;
- Issuing watercourse and land drainage consents;
- Inspecting coastal assets;
- Working with key stakeholders including the Environment Agency, Internal Drainage Board, water companies, neighbouring LLFA’s and our residents to manage flood risk;
- Undertaking flood investigations and maintaining relationships with affected landowners and stakeholders to establish the causes of flooding and determine potential mitigation to reduce the risk of flooding happening again;
- Working to develop schemes, including the use of natural flood management, property level flood resilient and coastal defence repairs and improvements;
- Working within a wider green infrastructure team helping to deliver broader environmental objectives.
- The role offers flexible working arrangements, with hybrid working a key part of the role.
