Build your career. Make an impact.

Do you enjoy being out on site, solving problems, working alongside contractors and colleagues, and seeing projects come to life firsthand?

This is a role for someone who thrives in a hands-on environment, enjoys variety, and would rather be out in the field than behind a desk all day.  You will play a key role in supporting geotechnical projects through field investigations, construction observations and site coordination.

  • Coordinating and supervising geotechnical field investigations and construction observations

  • Managing contractors, site resources, health and safety requirements, and field programmes

  • Undertaking and overseeing logging, field testing and data collection

  • Preparing field records, site plans, reports and project documentation

  • Supporting project delivery through investigation planning, technical reporting and stakeholder management

  • Providing field leadership and mentoring less experienced team members

You'll likely bring:

  • Experience delivering geotechnical field investigations and construction observations

  • Strong knowledge of soil and rock logging, sampling, field testing and site investigation methods

  • Experience coordinating contractors and managing field-based activities

  • Construction supervision and completion reporting experience

  • Excellent communication and relationship-building skills
