**About the team**

This vacancy is an exciting opportunity to be involved in the Biodiversity Gain Site Register programme, one of the most significant change projects for Natural England, delivering the government’s flagship policy on Biodiversity Net Gain (BNG). You will be at the forefront of helping to build a new function, the Register Operator. This new and significant function, of over 125 people, will involve working at pace, and in partnership across Natural England to ensure we have a highly skilled and performing team.

At Natural England, we love what we do. We’re here to make sure people and nature can thrive. A healthy natural environment is fundamental to our wellbeing, prosperity, and happiness - that’s why we collaborate with scientists, lawyers, project managers and experts to implement environmental policy and shape decisions.

Net Gain is an approach to development and or/land management that aims to leave the natural environment in a measurably better state than beforehand. This means protecting existing habitats and ensuring that lost or degraded environmental features are compensated for by restoration, or by creating features that are of greater environmental value.

The Environment Bill will make the Biodiversity Net Gain (BNG) approach to development mandatory in the English planning system. It will require planning applicants to deliver 10% BNG, as measured by the Biodiversity Metric, on their own development site or at an offsite location, in order to receive planning permission from the Local Planning Authority (LPA)

**About NE**

***Do you have a passion for nature and the environment? Do you want to make a real difference and secure significant environmental gains in the present and the future? Do you enjoy working in a team? Can you see yourself advising communities and customers to maximise gains for the Natural Environment?

If this appeals to you, a career at Natural England offers rewarding opportunities to secure environmental improvements and play your part in creating a better future for people and nature.

The priority work Natural England is delivering includes:

- Establishing a Nature Recovery Network to help wildlife thrive
- Monitoring environmental changes to identify and help reduce the effects of climate change
- Working with farmers and landowners to develop greener food production methods
- Advising on plans for new developments to maximise gains for nature
- Providing ways for people to better connect with nature, including green social prescribing

We are the Government’s advisor for the natural environment, playing a vital role in delivering the Government’s 25 Year Environment Plan, an ambitious vision which brings new opportunities to protect and enhance and to achieve real outcomes for the environment.
