Job description

The Opportunity

We have several exciting opportunities for enthusiastic early career Geoenvironmental consultants within our Energy & Resources Group in Warrington, Manchester or Shrewsbury.

We work holistically with diverse teams to provide high-quality, value-driven services that support energy transition and contribute to various local and national projects and frameworks to support the development of critical infrastructure across the UK and Ireland.

Your day-to-day tasks will involve a mix of field and office-based work, with a strong initial focus on site-based work. You will supervise field investigations for contaminated sites and hydrogeology studies. This includes overseeing drilling, well construction, testing, and conducting groundwater sampling and water level monitoring. Following this fieldwork, you will prepare high-quality interpretive technical reports. While the balance between site and office work will vary over time, the initial workload is expected to be primarily site-based.

To be successful in this role, you will need the following:

• A BSc or MSc degree in Hydrogeology, Environmental Science, Environmental Engineering, Geology, Earth Sciences or a related discipline.
• Two to five years of experience supervising ground investigations, environmental sampling, interpreting soil, groundwater, and gas data, and producing comprehensive risk assessments and reports.
• A strong commitment to health, safety and environmental protection
• Excellent communication, problem solving, and interpersonal skills.
• You must be willing to travel to UK offices and project sites and hold a full, clean UK driving license.
