If leadership is part of your career plan then we just might have the role you are looking for at the Environment Agency in the Greater Manchester, Merseyside and Cheshire area. We have a number of team leader roles temporary and permanent across the area.

The team leader role is absolutely critical to how we deliver our business and ensure that everyone who works here has the support they need to do a fantastic job.
Our leadership roles cover a wide and diverse range of teams across the whole of Greater Manchester, Merseyside and Cheshire. We have teams that work in a variety of different locations both office and field based. The roles will be located in our office in Warrington, but there will be opportunity to occasionally work flexibly from our depots in Sale or Winsford.
We are looking for enthusiastic, self-motivated applicants, who see that providing great leadership is as important as protecting people and the environment. You should have some experience of leading people, and this may have been achieved through other non-team leader roles e.g. project management or leading field teams. We would also expect good communication, influencing and decision making skills to help you do a great job. You will take part in incident management and support your team to do the same. Working with external people across the Area is a requirement and you will manage your team’s budget.
Closing Date: 7th July 2017 at 23:55 hours
