The Environment Agency are fully committed to having an inclusive workforce to reflect the communities we serve. We don't just talk about diversity; we seek it, embrace it, and live it, for the benefit of our staff, our communities, and our environment.
We are seeking to appoint an Asset Inspector to support the delivery of the Flood asset work across Cumbria. In this role you will ensure our assets remain safe, effective and resilient while supporting future investment planning.
You will be expected to manage your own workload and work flexibly according to the demands of the role, with support from colleagues.
Knowing the condition of our assets underpins our risk-based approach to asset management. The information is used to help us plan our work and target our resources.
You will be collecting data on Flood assets out on site and carrying out visual inspections to determine asset condition, identify issues and liaise with colleagues about these defects. You will do desk-based processing of the data in our asset management information system.
This role will include:
* Being out on-site inspecting Flood assets across Cumbria, this would be roughly 80% of your time.
* Managing your own Health & Safety
* Lone working
* Following guidance and procedures
* Processing and cleansing asset data
Responding to incidents is a central part of what we do. Everyone that joins us is required to undertake an incident role; training will be provided. Please see the candidate pack for more on how will support with this.
