Brampton, United Kingdom Environment Agency Full time

Number of jobs available- 2
- Region- East of England
- City/Town- Brampton
- Grade- Staff Grade 6
- Post Type- Permanent
- Working Pattern- Full Time, Part Time, Part Time/Job Share
- Role Type- Economics, Engineering, Environment & Sustainability, Programme and Project Management, Risk Management, Science, Strategy
- Salary Minimum- £47,646
- Job description- 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.
Working as a Flood and Coastal Risk Management Senior Advisor in the Partnerships and Strategic Overview Team, you will be working at the very heart of this organisation, helping to protect people and property from flooding.
The role includes (but is not limited to):

- Being proactive in driving projects forward from development through to delivery. Taking responsibility as senior user to identify & resolve risks, issues, and opportunities within the project.
- Developing and maintaining good internal and external working relationships with key partners, for the benefit of improving flood risk management outcomes across the catchment.
- Supporting other risk management authorities within the catchment to develop their own programme of FRCM projects
- Working closely with the leadership team to deliver the ambitions set out in the Environment Agency’s Flood and Coastal Erosion Risk Management Strategy for England 2020 and FCERM Strategy Action Plan.
- Supporting, training, and mentoring more junior members of the department.

Responding to incidents is a central part of what we do. You will be required to have an incident role and make yourself available to respond to incidents or provide business continuity support during an incident. This may attract an additional payment and full training and alternative working arrangements will be available to support you with your incident role.
You'll be based at an EA office, however we are adopting new ways of working allowing some flexibility to work from home.
The team- 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- We're looking for someone who is motivated and passionate with the ability to drive forward outcomes and achieve positive results.
Strong understanding of flood and coastal risk management including engineering and nature-based solutions.
- Able to act as a senior user with experience of the project environment, developing, assessing and evaluating business cases.
- The ability to understand the bigger picture and breakdown complex problems to ensure delivery of outcomes.
- Good problem-solving capabilities including developing innovative solutions.
- Strong communication skills including engagement, influencing, negotiation, customer and relationship management.
- Able to organise and deliver time critical work by planning, tracking, gathering and maintaining data/information.
- Be able to technically coach and mentor others.
- Flexible to the needs of the organisation and new ways of working.

It would help if you have competence in Geographic Information Systems.
- Contact and additional information- In East Anglia we want to create a diverse workplace where individuals are respected, valued and listened to. We’re all different, and by embracing Equality, Diversity & Inclusion (EDI) we can become an equal opportunity employer where we grow and learn together.
It is our ambition to champion diversity through building a workforce as diverse as the communities we serve.
