The role
As a Senior Marine Licensing Officer, you'll be responsible for assessing complex and high-profile marine licence applications.
You'll carry out detailed technical assessments, consult with experts, and ensure decisions are robust, defensible, and well-documented. You may also act as an expert witness in public inquiries, supporting evidence-based, transparent regulation.
This is a busy, desk-based role where you'll manage multiple cases simultaneously-balancing deadlines, problem-solving, and applying risk-based decision making under tight statutory timescales. You'll also play a key role in mentoring and supporting the wider team, helping to maintain high technical standards in marine permitting.
If you're looking for a role that combines technical challenge, environmental impact, and decision making in a supportive team setting -this is it.
As an organisation we support flexible working. You will be contracted to the nearest NRW office to your home and a suitable hybrid working pattern will be agreed on appointment. Any regular face to face meetings or training will be planned in advance.
