Job description 1
This is an exciting opportunity to join an Asset Performance team in the UK’s biggest environmental organisation. We manage Flood Risk assets across the East Midlands to ensure they protect our communities from the risk of flooding. As professional Asset Managers, you will be part of a team inspecting, maintaining and refurbishing Flood Risk assets which include kilometres of riverbanks, sluice gates and flood storage reservoirs amongst other things.
We are looking for a highly motivated, confident and enthusiastic person to join our team and help deliver our priority workloads. You will primarily focus on helping with the delivery and assurance of our ongoing internal and external maintenance programmes. This may include undertaking site visits to understand our maintenance requirements and to ensure the work is undertaken in accordance with our instructions. You will also be given the opportunity to get involved in other priority workloads across the area.
Incident response remains a top priority for the Environment Agency. 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.
