About the Role

This is an exciting new opportunity for those with flood risk management experience to join our national Flood Warning & Informing team. Natural Resources Wales has a statutory duty to provide a flood warning service to communities at risk of flooding in Wales.

The Flood Warning & Informing team is responsible for delivery our policy, strategy and business critical systems which enable Natural Resources Wales to provide a direct flood warning service to over 120,000 people at risk of river and coastal flooding in Wales, as well as providing information via other channels including our website, Floodline and open digital data API.

This role will support a growing team which will deliver an ambitious programme of work to improve our flood warning and informing services over the next five years, including drawing on lessons learnt from the February 2020 Floods Review. The team will also lead work to deliver a replacement Flood Warning System when our current contracted service ends in 2022. This will entail close working through our partnership with the Environment Agency in England as well as with customers in Wales to ensure any new system is resilient, meets customer needs and keeps pace with technological change.

Key areas of focus over the next few years will be how we can continue to improve our digital services to those at risk of flooding as well as realising efficiencies in service delivery so we can re-invest savings to make service improvements elsewhere.
