Organisational structure
Over the last 38 years, EPA has achieved a lot for the environment in a time when pollution was the priority.
Today we operate in a dramatically different environmental, political, commercial and social landscape. We’ve never before faced challenges like climate change and resource overuse.
Victorians want us to continue to protect the environment as we have done in the past. But we now need to also focus on the challenges of our time and adopt new ways to address these challenges.
EPA will continue to deliver great things for Victoria’s environment, community and economy by successfully delivering our strategic objectives;
- Reduce emission impacts
- Increase resource efficiency
- Tackle climate change
- Benefit the economy
- Enhance our reputation
To help us deliver our strategic objectives, a new organisation structure came into place on 8th December 2008
The organisational structure has seven key areas with the following focus:
Client Services Directorate
- Provides client management services to enable the delivery of EPA services that meet the needs of our clients and achieves EPA’s strategic objectives.
Environmental Services Directorate
- Delivers environmental services to our clients including Works Approvals, Licences, enforcement, pollution response, collaborations, sustainability advice and environmental monitoring
Business Development Directorate
- Defines and improves current services and develops new services for clients to meet EPA’s strategic objectives
Future Focus Directorate
- Develops corporate and environmental strategies that position EPA for the future
Corporate Resources Directorate
- Supports EPA with good governance, business systems and internal support
Organisational Growth Directorate
- Supports our people and culture, the way we engage with the community, and drives change in the organisation
Chairman’s Directorate
- Supports and advises the Chairman on a range of strategic and legal issues
