This is a really exciting time to join the MMO as we become an independent coastal state, embedding new repatriated functions and services with an increased focus on the protection and enhancing of the marine environment. Marine Planners contribute to the development and delivery of marine plans in England. The role will include understanding and analysing relevant evidence, including national and local policy, and integrating stakeholder views. Each Marine Planner will undertake marine plan developmental work by contributing to the associated workstreams and acting on lessons learnt to support the marine planning process.
Reporting to a Senior Marine Planner, the role holder will be involved in at least one theme or major topic from the economy, environment, or social groupings. You will provide appropriate leadership and management to Marine Planners within workstreams that contribute to the marine planning programme. You will work closely with colleagues within and outside of the MMO, engaging with a wide range of stakeholders to include industry, other sectors and members of the public, ensuring that their contributions are considered in an inclusive and appropriate manner.
We are recruiting for one Higher Executive Officer (HEO) Marine Planner role. The role focus will be to provide support across the team for all forms of data and analysis with a focus on spatial mapping tools (GIS), data analysis, collaboration, databases and software, alongside the key tasks, accountabilities and responsibilities of an HEO Marine Planner.
It is anticipated that a merit list will be created, lasting up to 12 months, that will assist in filling other Marine Planning roles that may become available in the future. We are keen to hear from candidates with a broad range of skills and experience including a background in planning, local or national government, evidence and analysis, team leadership and project management.
Note that only applications made via the Civil Service Jobs platform, and using the MMO CV template, will be progressed.
