We value a diverse workforce. We want to be an organisation that represents modern Britain and the communities we serve. We want everybody to feel included, fairly treated and recognised for their contribution. This is an exciting time to join the Environment Agency’s Monitoring Laboratories (ML) as we expand our low-level organic screening capabilities to deliver an increase in demand for this critical environmental monitoring tool. The team is currently expanding to meet new workstream demand from the Environmental Agency. As such you will be part of a team of skilled analysts who will run work routinely by using your knowledge of the techniques involved in the analysis of Organic compounds. You will be part of the wider Organics team and may be involved in other non-screening analysis as required. You will be required to: • Ensure your work area adheres to the high-quality standards of an ISO17025 laboratory. • Support the technical leads in investigating and finding solutions to sometimes complex problems. • Implement improvements to existing methodologies. • Become proficient in screening analysis techniques across a range of water matrices. • Work alongside the technical leads on any future developments within the Screens Team. • You will be required to form close working relationships with less experienced members of the team and support them to learn and build their knowledge. • Responding to incidents is a central part of what we do. You will be required to have an incident role and make yourself available to respond to incidents or provide business continuity support during an incident. This may attract an additional payment and full training, and alternative working arrangements will be available to support you with your incident role. This is a permanent role working Monday - Friday
