About Us Partnership for South Hampshire The Partnership for South Hampshire (PfSH) consists of twelve local authorities around the Solent that aim to improve the environmental, cultural and economic performance of the South Hampshire area. We work with partners to dissolve the boundaries of individual local authorities – to successfully meet challenges together – and to make the most of the opportunities that can be shared across the wider south Hampshire area. Our partners include government agencies, infrastructure bodies and many others. More information on PfSH is available at Solent Mitigation Partnership In early 2024, working through the PfSH, the Solent area was successful in receiving money through the government’s Local Nutrient Mitigation Fund (LNMF) and has worked quickly to provide nutrient mitigation to aid sustainable development. The opportunity presented by the potential funding available is significant for the Solent region. By adopting a strategic approach, we can ensure, alongside the private market, that mitigation is available to meet the planned growth across the Solent long term. This approach also emphasises the importance of not only addressing environmental concerns but allows for significant additional benefits for people and placemaking. The framework and projects (acquired through the LNMF) also provide the opportunity to deliver multiple different forms of mitigation from one source. It is intended that the Solent Mitigation Partnership will also offer, but will not be limited to Biodiversity Net Gain Units and Solent Wader & Brent Geese site mitigation. Mitigation is now being delivered across the PfSH local authorities, together with a number of additional partner local authorities across the wider Solent area. More information on the SMP is available at Fareham Borough Council (employer authority) We take pride in receiving feedback from others who say we are a friendly and professional organisation. By working for us you will become part of the team and will play your part in serving all our partners’ communities. You would be joining one of the most forward-looking borough councils in the Southeast, a happy team and a well-managed Council. We offer a great pension scheme, authorised parking, tech schemes and a car lease scheme to name a few of the benefits of working for us. We encourage our employees to make a valuable contribution to the work of the Council and our partner authorities by having a trusting and open culture, where ideas are actively sought. We also recognise the value of a highly motivated and engaged workforce. We are committed to ensuring our services are delivered to the highest possible standard and we put the customer at the forefront of everything we do.
