Job description
If you're part of the Environment Agency, you're part of the solution. Working with us means protecting and improving the environment for future generations, tackling issues of national importance across a huge variety of disciplines.

An exciting opportunity has arisen to join one of our Asset Performance teams in Yorkshire, where you will have an important role in managing our flood risk assets.

You will be helping to deliver a wide variety of work to ensure that we have the right flood risk assets in the right places, in the correct condition and they are ready to operate when required.

As one of our Asset Performance Team Members, you will contribute to the management of the Environment Agency's range of flood risk assets.

You will be involved in supporting all of our Asset Management activity and may be asked to lead on a geographical area or an area of work.

This role is very varied so you may be requesting maintenance one day, managing our data the next day and liaising with customers about our assets on another.

Site visits will be required.

As 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
Our team manage the whole lifecycle of our flood and coastal erosion risk management assets, i.e. planning, delivery, maintenance, decommissioning. We are responsible for ensuring our assets are constructed, inspected, surveyed, assessed, maintained, and operated in a safe, effective, and efficient manner. This is a frontline role working to better protect local communities from flooding by ensuring our assets are ready and operate as intended.

Experience/skills required

We're seeking people with a passion for the environment and asset management experience to protect communities who are at risk of flooding. You will have excellent organisational, data and prioritisation skills that you will utilise to support the management of our assets.

We are looking for individuals who can demonstrate:

Excellent IT skills
Data management skills
An ability to learn about new systems and software
An ability to work as part of a team and under your own initiative
Excellent communication skills
Health, safety and environmental awareness
Driving licence

Experience in flood risk management, GIS systems, engineering or asset management activities is advantageous but not essential.

Contact and additional informationWe are passionate about personal development and will ensure that you have the training/support you need to succeed. It is also possible to pursue further academic and professional qualifications.

Interviews will be held during late August and Early September 2023.
