Environmental Monitoring Officer

2 weeks ago


Spalding, United Kingdom Environment Agency Full time

We are enhancing our efforts to restore chalk streams and this is an exciting opportunity to contribute to an innovative national programme focussed on achieving sustainable abstraction and healthy rivers across chalk catchments. Fundamental to this will be extending the monitoring and assessment of the impacts of water abstraction.
- You will work as part of a virtual pan area team to undertake environmental monitoring and assessment across chalk catchments. Most monitoring sites will form part of the national Water Resources Permitting and Planning Network. It will focus on headwater sites including those which periodically dry, and also river reaches experiencing elevated flows from existing groundwater support schemes. This work will boost our understanding of the ecological impacts of abstraction and provide an underlying evidence base at both local and national scale.
- You will support chalk stream environmental monitoring and assessment by:
- undertaking macro-invertebrate (mixed-taxon level) identification of chalk stream samples (based at the Spalding laboratory)
- undertaking macrophyte and River Habitat Surveys and supporting fish surveys
- undertaking data management/analysis and interpretation across all freshwater monitoring disciplines
- liaising with other teams and external partners
- supporting investigations into impacts of environmental pollution incidents.

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.

The team
- The posts will be based and managed in the Area Analysis & Reporting (A&R) teams. Each A&R team collects specialist ecological evidence and provides analysis and interpretation of this evidence to inform decisions on effective environmental outcomes.
- The pan area virtual team will consist of a Senior Environmental Monitoring Officer and 3 Environmental Monitoring Officers geographically dispersed across chalk areas. This team will work closely with colleagues in national teams.

Experience/skills required
- You will be:
- an enthusiastic and self-motivated person with a genuine passion for the environment
- qualified to at least degree level (or equivalent) in a relevant discipline (e.g. ecology or environmental sciences/biology), with relevant practical experience specialised in freshwater ecology
- experienced in freshwater ecological surveys and laboratory work
- able to analyse macroinvertebrate samples to mixed taxonomic level, and / or undertake lowland river macrophyte surveys and River Habitat Surveys (accreditation would be desirable)
- experienced in analysing, interpreting and reporting river ecology monitoring data, specifically with respect to anthropogenic pressures

You will have good communication and influencing skills, adaptable, self-motivating and able to take decisions to manage workload to tight deadlines
- The post-holder will be required to undertake fieldwork and must hold a full driving licence and be a confident swimmer.

Contact and additional information
- We value a diverse workforce and are fully committed to being an inclusive employer.- A full UK driving licence is essential.
- Based in Spalding PE11 1DA with travelling to field locations for which transport will be provided.- Interviews will be held in January 2023.
