Job description

We are looking for an enthusiastic Senior Technical Officer to join the Combined Packaging Regime within Waste Markets & Shipments (WM&S), to use your analytical skills to clean up our environment and drive forward the circular economy goals, through a brand-new deposit return scheme (DRS) for plastic bottles and cans.

As Senior Technical Officer you will lead on using data analytics to support the implementation and ongoing development of the Deposit Return Scheme (DRS). Your work will help ensure that data collected through the scheme is robust, accurate, and used effectively to assess fraud risk and monitor compliance.

By harnessing data, you can help streamline collection, reduce waste, and supercharge the circular economy, turning discarded items into valuable resources.

You’ll collaborate with colleagues across the Environment Agency, Defra, the devolved administrations, and industry stakeholders to turn policy into operational systems. By identifying patterns and analysing trends, you’ll directly contribute to ensuring the scheme functions as intended.

You’ll analyse data to develop dashboards, reports, and models to support the enforcement and monitoring of the scheme.

As Senior Technical Officer this will involve…

Collaborating with policy, digital, and regulatory teams to shape the DRS digital infrastructure and ensure data quality.
Providing expert analytical insight to inform decision-making across the Environment Agency and with government partners.
Helping define and improve data governance and reporting standards for the scheme.
Train and Support Regulatory Officers to become confident in their role and deliver the above
Attend national industry events

We are fully committed to having an inclusive workforce to reflect the communities we serve. We welcome flexible working patterns for all our vacancies, including job share, so please clearly include any information regarding your preferred working arrangements on your application.

The team

We are a national team, ensuring that companies are managing their packaging waste correctly by enforcing government regulation. As a Senior Technical Officer, you will oversee compliance within the DRS scheme across the drinks supply chain.

WM&S is a supportive and inclusive department that encourages our teams’ health, safety, wellbeing, and development. We aim to improve the quality of recycling and ensure waste entering and leaving the country is handled appropriately for recycling and recovery.

Experience/skills required

In your capability-based answers please demonstrate your:

Outstanding data and information management, with sound attention to detail

Experience of using R or Python programming languages (or similar) for data analysis

Ability to analyse large complex data sets to ensure the accuracy of data submitted to us

Excellent communication skills, conveying data and information into plain English to negotiate outcomes and influence those you work with

Ability to work with a variety of colleagues to solve complex technical issues and deliver outcomes

Experience in supporting and influencing others to deliver based on priority

Experience of working with customers and colleagues to achieve compliance with regulatory requirements is desirable not essential.

You will be required to have an incident role which may attract an additional payment. Full training will be available to support you with your incident role.

Contact and additional information

Our team is based in Sheffield and currently works flexibly between the office/home. Regular travel to the Sheffield office is required. Occasional travel to other national locations is also required.

We offer an attractive benefits package including:

A fantastic pension scheme, flexible working and a starting annual leave allowance of 27 days plus bank holidays (pro rata). See the candidate pack for further information.

Interviews will be conducted virtually week commencing 29th June 2026. Successful candidates may be kept in a pool for future vacancies within the next 6 months.
