Our outgoing officer brought valuable expertise in air quality, contaminated land and wider Environmental Health functions (including planning, licensing and LAPPC permits), and while we would ideally recruit a similarly qualified EHO, we appreciate the current market challenges. As such we’re also keen to hear from recent Environmental Health Graduates or EPOs who are working towards full EHP registration. If you’re passionate about environmental protection and keen to grow your career in a supportive and forward-thinking team, we’d love to hear from you.
