Central Belt - Scotland
Together we are Trusted to Serve Scotland.
How’s this for job satisfaction: at Scottish Water we look after Scotland's most precious natural resource. From source to tap, we’re guarding Scotland’s reputation for refreshingly pure water, and caring for our environment at the same time.
Naturally, the work we do is closely regulated. Our Wastewater Strategy & Environmental Team (WWS&ER) play a pivotal role in building trust with our external stakeholders and regulators. Right now, we’re looking for an Environmental Regulation Analyst to join the team.

2. Provide environmental regulatory data collation/analysis, advice and guidance to the business.
3. Become a subject matter expert for reporting requirements and the tools used for reporting.
4. Work closely with our Environmental Regulator, SEPA and other external stakeholders.
5. Support the delivery of regulatory returns within specified deadlines.
6. Co-ordinate the collation, review and analysis of data for reporting.
What you'll need
1. A general understanding of European and UK environmental legislation, particularly Scottish regulations.
2. It would be handy to have a qualification in a scientific discipline, but equivalent experience is acceptable.
3. Strong communication, collaboration and influencing skills.
4. Practical experience of data collation, analysis, review and quality assurance.
5. Solid IT skills, particularly in MS Office.
6. A full UK driving licence for site visits throughout Scotland.

For your future, there’s our pension, as well as life assurance.
As for some nice extras? You can expect an annual company bonus and access to SW Splash – handy rewards that can save you money on holidays, bills, and shopping.
