Job title: Flood and Coastal Risk Officer Grade II
Employer: Office of Public Works
Location: Kilkenny
Closing Date: 3pm, Thursday, 4th September 2025
Salary: Starting at €74,701
About the Employer:
The Office of Public Works (OPW) is the lead agency in co-ordinating flood risk management policy, the flood relief capital programme and the technical assessment of coastal change risks in Ireland.
Flood Risk Management Services and Planning and Climate Adaptation Services are the Business Units in the OPW tasked with discharging this responsibility.
The OPW has recently been designated as the national lead co-ordinating body for the assessment of coastal change hazards and risks and the assessment of technical options and constraints for managing these risks.
This requires the OPW to collect and analyse relevant data, monitor the coast, map coastal change hazards, identify areas of risk, and identify and appraise appropriate management measures or protection works to address these risks.
The primary functions of the flood risk management programme are to minimise the extent of coastal and river flooding and its social, economic and environmental impacts through the implementation of effective protection and mitigation measures for at-risk areas, the provision of flood risk guidance and advice in the area of sustainable planning and assisting the development of resilient communities.
This requires the OPW to develop and deliver appropriate work programmes and measures; to maintain an effective programme of maintenance of river courses drained and flood defence schemes constructed under the provisions of the Arterial Drainage Acts, 1945 and 1995; and to advise the Government on flood risk management and flood risk management policy.
About the Role:
Flood and Coastal Risk Officers Grade II will typically report to an Engineer Grade I (or other delegated officer at Grade I level) and will work with support staff such as Engineers Grade III or Flood and Coastal Risk Officers Grade III.
They may also be required to supervise operational staff in their assigned section.
