The Office for Environmental Protection (OEP) mission is to protect and improve the natural environment. Established by the Environment Act 2021, our role is to hold government and public bodies in England and Northern Ireland to account. We do this in several ways including reporting on progress towards environmental commitments, advising on changes to environmental laws and receiving complaints from the public, which can lead to us investigating and taking enforcement action. This role is based within the OEP s Insights Directorate which leads on progressing our strategic objective of holding governments to account for delivery of environmental goals and targets, in accordance with Environmental Improvement Plans. The scope of our work is broad and the OEP s priority areas over the next three years are improving nature on land and at sea, clean water, planning and effective governance; as well as developing our work on the circular economy and waste and chemical regulation. Alongside analysing and commissioning scientific evidence on the natural environment, understanding policy is a key aspect of assessing how government is addressing its commitments and meeting its targets. Through our Environmental Improvement Plan monitoring and reporting, we analyse and comment on government s progress. We make recommendations on how progress could be improved across environmental goals, and plans. We also provide advice on the adequacy of environmental monitoring.

The OEP takes an issue-based approach. Therefore, in addition to their main role to support our objective of sustained environmental improvement, the post holder will input into the wider strategic objectives of the organisation, in particular where this aligns with subject matter expertise, experience and work being undertaken through the scrutiny of EIPs. The post holder will be expected to work flexibly and lead analysis and insights across OEP functions and across a range of themes or subjects, and develop expertise accordingly. Key areas we expect the role-holder will lead on include: Provide leadership in the planning, management and delivery of aspects of the OEP s approach to scrutinising Environmental Improvement Plan s (EIPs) and targets, in particular prospective assessments. Lead the critical appraisal, synthesis, and integration of knowledge, evidence, and analysis to inform independent, high-impact assessments. Drive continuous improvement.
