Help build a new public body for Wales: Disused Tips Authority for Wales

General Candidate Information Pack - 2026 Recruitment Campaign

Help build the regulatory capability behind one of Wales' newest public bodies.

The Disused Tips Authority for Wales is being established as the national public body responsible for overseeing the safety, management and regulation of disused tips across Wales. Operating in a high-profile, safety-critical environment, our success will depend on a regulatory approach that is fair, proportionate, transparent and trusted by the people and communities we serve.

As Head of Operations (Compliance), you will play a critical leadership role in developing and leading the Authority's national compliance and enforcement function. You will ensure statutory notifications, monitoring, compliance and enforcement activities are delivered consistently, proportionately and in accordance with legislation, protecting communities while supporting confidence in the Authority's regulatory approach.

This is a broad strategic leadership role. Alongside leading the Authority's compliance function, you will develop operational policies, regulatory processes and workforce capability, ensuring compliance activity is aligned to the Board's strategic vision and Corporate Plan while promoting consistency, fairness and effective regulation.

Job description

Beyond the organisation itself, you will play a pivotal role in developing the Authority's ambition to become a recognised centre of excellence in modern, risk-based regulation. Working with Welsh Government, local authorities, regulators, landowners, professional institutions and other partners, you will help strengthen regulatory capability, share good practice and develop approaches that support the long-term management of disused tips across Wales.

The role is both inward and outward facing:

Internally, you will build a professional, consistent and high-performing compliance function where colleagues exercise sound professional judgement, apply legislation fairly and work collaboratively to achieve positive regulatory outcomes.
Externally, you will work with landowners, local authorities, regulators, communities and other partners to encourage compliance, build understanding of statutory responsibilities and promote confidence in the Authority's regulatory approach.
