ASSISTANT GEOSPATIAL SURVEY MANAGER

Leeds, West Yorkshire | Permanent | Full-time

£42,000-£50,000 + benefits, depending on experience

STEP UP. WITHOUT STEPPING AWAY.

You’ll use your technical experience to plan and deliver topographical, measured building, monitoring, laser scanning and setting-out projects,from initial enquiry and quotation through fieldwork, quality assurance and final delivery.

Every project is different: one day you could be planning a complex topographical survey; the next, reviewing a point cloud, resolving a control issue or helping a team deliver information for a major development or infrastructure project. You'll collaborate with land, measured building and utility surveyors, geophysicists and GIS specialists.

HOW YOU'LL GROW

You’ll build practical management experience across six areas:

• planning programmes and resources;
• coaching surveyors;
• strengthening client relationships;
• supporting quotations, budgets and project control;
• reviewing deliverables; and
• improving how we work.

This is hands‑on experience designed to prepare you for what comes next: structured training, practical management responsibility and professional development support, including CICES membership where appropriate, with the longer-term opportunity to progress into senior management and wider operational leadership.

WHAT YOU'LL BRING

You’ll probably be operating at Senior Surveyor level, or have equivalent experience in a surveying or geospatial business.

• Strong experience in topographical and measured building surveying, laser scanning and related geospatial disciplines.
• Confident using relevant survey and point-cloud software, including Cyclone, TruView, ReCap, Undet or CloudWorx, CloudCompare, 3DR, Revit and Pix4D.
• Strong planning, organisation and communication skills, with the ability to manage competing priorities and work confidently with clients, colleagues and suppliers.
• A practical, solutions‑focused approach, with a sound understanding of project costs and commercial priorities.
• A sharp eye for quality, strong health and safety awareness, good IT skills and a full UK driving licence.

Even better if you've already had experience coaching surveyors, preparing quotations, managing budgets or coordinating field and office teams.

WHAT YOU'LL GET

£42,000-£50,000 salary depending on experience, plus:

• Support for relevant qualifications, paid professional memberships and access, where appropriate, to our CICES Approved Development Scheme, including structured technical and management training.
• 25 days annual leave a year increasing to 30 with service, plus 8 Bank Holidays.
• Vehicle or company car allowance.
• Approved overtime as pay or additional leave.
• Cycle to Work scheme.
• Employee discounts and rewards.

More importantly: A chance to build a career, not just a job.
