Description

Project Surveyor – Canberra, Australia

$120,000 – $130,000 per year + Super + Vehicle + Tech

Valid Australian work rights or work visa required for this position.

If you're a Project Surveyor with 3+ years experience and looking to fast-track your development and level up your lifestyle, Canberra is calling.

This isn't just Australia's capital… it's one of the most underrated cities in the country.

Think vibrant bars, cafés and restaurants, a growing live music and events scene, and a young professional crowd, all without the chaos of bigger cities.

And outside of work?

You're minutes from mountain biking trails, surrounded by nature, 2 hours to the snow, and close enough for easy coastal getaways.

It's the kind of place where your career grows fast and your life outside work actually exists.

Why Canberra?

A buzzing (and seriously underrated) food & bar scene

Snow trips to the Snowy Mountains in winter

Weekend escapes to the coast

Clean, safe, easy living no big city burnout

A growing, social young professional community

Real work-life balance (not just talked about)

Why Start Your Career with TSS?

At TSS Total Surveying Solutions, we don't just hire juniors, we develop future leaders.

We're a progressive surveying company operating across NSW, Victoria and the ACT, known for investing in our people just as much as our technology.

You'll be supported by experienced Surveyors and Managers, given real responsibility early, and backed to grow your skills quickly across major projects.

No getting stuck doing the same thing every day.

What You'll Get

• $120,000 – $130,000 per year + bonus
• Company vehicle + laptop + phone
• Exposure to major construction & infrastructure projects
• Structured development and mentorship from experienced Surveyors

• Interest in AutoCAD and Trimble tech
• Strong communication skills and willingness to learn
• A proactive attitude and attention to detail
• Team player mindset with ambition to grow
