• Degree qualified in a relevant earth science or engineering discipline.
• Chartered or working towards Chartered/Qualified Person (QP) status.
• Strong technical skills, including use of software such as MS Project, Openground, Surfer, and ideally CAD/GIS.

What's On Offer:

• Competitive salary tailored to experience.
• Minimum 25 days holiday, increasing with service + bank holidays.
