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.

**Job description**

As the freshwater agenda continues to grow within Natural England we are looking for a Lead Adviser to further develop freshwater delivery across the West Midlands. If you want to be a part of a team recovering nature, restoring natural functionality and improving our freshwater environment, there is no better place to do it.

Our freshwater work covers a huge range of unique habitats, from the meres and mosses which are internationally unique wetland sites, to the Severn Estuary and its diverse assemblage of migratory fish. Our protected sites also include the unique Cotswold Water Park, the stunning River Wye, as well as the River Clun and the Teme which hold one of the last remaining populations of freshwater pearl mussels in England. The work is diverse and there is huge opportunity to be part of a range of exciting projects, from beaver re-introductions & catchment modelling to mapping functional habitats for migratory fish. The variety of work will allow you to put your skills to best use in areas where you can excel and get the best outcomes for wildlife

**Key Tasks**:

- Work across the area team to ensure that freshwater delivery is fully embedded and supported across the relevant priorities. Work with all teams across the West Midlands to maximise environmental delivery.
- Deliver technical advice / input on water quality issues with specific emphasis on rivers, providing this advice across the team to support our work.
- Provide technical advice on water related casework, including basic hydrogeological advice on abstraction licences, water quality and water level issues arising on casework (planning, land management or Environment Agency consultations).
- Work with relevant water company plans, providing advice to maximise environmental outcomes. This may include Water Resource Management Plans and Drought Plans.
- Work closely with team members providing freshwater advice to support delivery of the Local Nature Recovery Strategies, as well as input into Catchment Delivery Plans.
- Provide support where necessary to relevant Catchment Based Approach partnerships groups to support delivery of Natural England’s vision.
- Work closely with the Water Senior Advisor and Headwaters Project Manager to develop our Headwaters Strategic project and support nature based solutions and Nature Recovery Network development across the area team.
