About The Job
Job summary
Natural England has high ambitions for nature – capitalising on a stronger policy framework, increased resources, and new initiatives to achieve our vision of thriving nature for people and planet.
The publication of the Environmental Improvement Plan (EIP) reaffirmed those ambitions and confirmed Natural England’s part in delivering Government’s commitments to nature recovery. Our remit has expanded as set out in the Environment Act to include implementation of Biodiversity Net Gain, Local Nature Recovery Strategies and stronger roles around landscapes. Our increased budget enabled us to boost capacity over the last 2 years and provide the capability for new work through training and development.
To deliver our ambitious agenda, we need a strong business infrastructure that supports and enables those delivering more directly on the ‘front line’ to achieve the organisation’s objectives as effectively, efficiently and safely as possible. The current business support model has developed rapidly and is now undergoing a period of stabilisation, improvement, and professionalisation while driving efficiencies.
We need reform and improvement of our business management capability to enhance our operating model, ways of working and culture. The Director Planning and Performance will work as part of the Business Management and Natural England Senior Leadership teams to optimise efficiencies and drive improvements across the whole organisation which are essential to supporting the delivery of our ambitious agenda. All while continuing to support the organisation to deliver stretching in-year delivery outcomes.
