Chichester, United Kingdom Environment Agency Full time

Water is the heart of all we do, drinking, washing, recreation, industry and health. Our environment and economy depend on this precious resource.
- Clean water is essential and as water becomes an increasingly important resource, we need to ensure that it can provide the functions we require of it.
- We have an exciting opportunity for you to play your part in this important environmental and societal need in the beautiful and diverse environments of the Solent and South Downs.
- We need your knowledge and experience to help manage the quality of our water environment to ensure it can meet future needs. In particular, you will be prioritising water quality monitoring requirements for the area and assisting with assessments of water company environment plans.
- If you're passionately committed to the environment, one who sees the risks, understands what needs to be done and can work closely with those who hold the key to change, you can ensure our water environment functions for nature and society.
- You'll work closely with national policy and process, area delivery and key customers on aspects of strategic planning, incident management and local action on the ground.
- From water company investment programmes to land management from moors to coasts. We need someone to plan our response to current pressures and future demands.
- Can you help?
- 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
- You’ll join a team of environment planners who focus predominantly on water quality, water resources and Water Framework Directive activities in the Solent and South Downs area. You'll work alongside a dispersed team and with operational teams, national colleagues and water companies. The team collates, analyses and shares data to produce environmental evidence that informs and drives area priorities.

Experience/skills required
- You will be able to demonstrate the following:
- Good knowledge or experience of water quality planning and ecology.
- Ability or experience to lead technical conversations with both internal and external partners.
- Political awareness and sensitivity to deliver the right service when dealing with customers and stakeholders.
- The ability to work collaboratively with other teams.
- The ability to articulate solutions to problems in a simple, engaging way.
- Good judgment, problem solving and decision making skills.
- Good planning skills, with the ability to handle multiple priorities and deliver to tight timescales.
- A high-level degree (e.g. Masters or PHD) OR equivalent knowledge or experience in a relevant environmental discipline.

Contact and additional information
- We don’t just talk about diversity; we seek it, embrace it and live it, for the benefit of our staff, our communities and our environment.
- We support flexible working hours and practices.
- We also encourage you to keep developing your skills and professional knowledge throughout your career.-
- Interviews will be held remotely by video conference date to be confirmed.
