We are looking for a professional individual with knowledge and experience of different industrial sectors, to be responsible for the regulation of installations under the Environmental Permitting Regulations. You will ensure permit compliance, assess operator ability to protect the environment, prevent pollution and optimise resources.

Although comprehensive technical skills are desirable, effective influencing and negotiating skills are essential to secure best practice. You will be able to deal with technical and different management levels within industry, local communities and other interested groups. You will be expected to respond to, investigate and undertake enforcement to a range of environmental incidents.
The post will be in the Installations North team covering sites in Lincolnshire and Northamptonshire. The area provides a diverse range of environmental challenges, stretching from the highly industrialised South Humber Bank, the urban centres of Peterborough, Northampton and Corby, and across the rural areas of Lincolnshire and Northamptonshire.

You will also have a key input to the Area, in supporting and advising other teams on industry sector regulation, compliance, advice and guidance.
We’re seeking a person with industrial and/or regulatory experience to include data analysis, auditing and reporting. A knowledge of Environmental Management Systems is desirable. Our regulated sectors include refineries, landfill, food and drink, combustion and chemical – we are particularly interested in individuals who have experience or transferable skills within these sectors.

You’ll be able to demonstrate your practical operational knowledge and experience of environmental regulation.

You’ll have experience of delivering environmental improvements using a range of tools.

You’ll be proactive, self-motivated and a confident communicator, use to influencing and negotiating to deliver outcomes, with strong interpersonal skills.
