About Infrastructure and Environment (I&E)

Our department’s focus is to provide the critical national infrastructure and decision making needed to enable islanders, businesses and visitors to live, work and enjoy the island.

We are a key delivery agent in protecting and enhancing Jersey’s natural and built environment, and in protecting the habitats and species which make the Island special.

 

Our Structure

Our delivery team services are split across four directorates: Operations & Transport, Natural Environment, Regulation and Property. 

The Directorates are served by I&E’s Head Office which provides the critical central corporate support for the department, co-ordinating governance, strategic and business planning, health and safety, business change, departmental organisation and service reviews, records management as well as oversight of the department’s capital programme. Their People and Culture plan has a key focus on wellbeing, engagement, learning and developing and attracting new talent.
