Job summary

The Environmental Land Management (ELM) schemes form a core part of Defras Farming Directorate through rewarding farmers and land managers for environmentally beneficial activities. There are three ELM schemes the Sustainable Farming Incentive, Countryside Stewardship Higher Tier and Landscape Recovery Scheme. The schemes collectively offer a mix of action-based payments and the opportunity to co-design long term, bespoke agreements to deliver landscape-scale land use change and habitat restoration.

ELM is a large and fast-paced division comprising policy, delivery and evidence teams working together to develop the new schemes. Staff are geographically dispersed with a mixture of office and home-working arrangements in place. A range of technologies are used to connect between members as part of our day to day working.

We have an exciting and challenging Higher Scientific Officer role within the ELM Science, Monitoring and Evaluation team. This team is multi-disciplinary, comprising of natural scientists, social scientists and analysts.

This role will complement, expand and develop the science and monitoring capacity, working closely with the existing teams on the policy development and improvement of the schemes.

Job description

We are seeking an enthusiastic and capable Natural Scientist, with excellent technical ability, leadership potential, communication and co-ordination skills, to coordinate and deliver cross-cutting evaluation of our agri-environment delivery at a project and scheme level. This analysis will support the assessment of environmental outcomes, project deliverability and value for money, helping to ensure the schemes are delivering intended environmental benefits.

The roles will also include close collaboration with analytical, policy and delivery teams, as well as effective engagement with external stakeholders to support scheme delivery.

Person specification

The post holders will be responsible for conducting, coordinating and presenting analysis, reviewing monitoring and evaluation approaches, producing analytical products and technical documentation, negotiating long-term agreements, developing guidance, and delivering internal training.

Conduct, coordinate and present a cross-cutting evaluation of project/scheme deliverability, environmental benefits, monitoring and evaluation approaches, contribution to environmental targets, alignment to scheme objectives, and value for money.
Develop and maintain up to date knowledge of environmental monitoring approaches across a range of asset-based indicators and apply this to the review of monitoring and evaluation plans and provision of expert advice to relevant policy and delivery teams to support scheme design and delivery decisions.
Produce technical supporting documentation to formalise long-term project commitments and guide future implementation.
Communicate effectively with external stakeholders to provide guidance and support, negotiate project implementation terms, and achieve favourable outcomes aligned with scheme objectives and environmental targets.
Develop and produce analytical products for project and scheme evaluation.

Develop guidance and deliver internal training on analytical assurance tasks.

Support the delivery of externally commissioned research projects to ensure robust, impactful designs that achieve value for money and provide insights that feed into scheme development.

Hold a degree in a relevant scientific discipline or have equivalent workplace experience.
Have specialist knowledge of monitoring in one of the following areas: trees and woodlands, soils, water quality, biodiversity, habitats, agricultural landscapes

Have excellent analytical skills covering evidence synthesis, qualitative and quantitative research methods, data collection and analysis and interpreting data. Including experience delivering products using GIS software and dealing with large complex datasets.
