Job description

Tier Environmental is seeking an experienced Geoenvironmental engineer to join our expanding consultancy. The position is primarily based at our Bromsgrove office but might also require a willingness to travel.

The successful candidate will form part of a team of engineers, geologists and environmental scientists who are part of the larger Tier engineering group of civil and structural engineers. We specialise in identifying, quantifying and reducing abnormal costs to developments at an early stage and provide effective holistic solutions for a range of geotechnical, environmental and waste management issues for both commercial and private clients.

The successful candidate should have at least 1 year of relevant post-graduate experience and should be able to demonstrate a proven track record relating to the management and reporting of contaminated land, geotechnical and civil engineering site investigations. Knowledge and/or experience of remediation and verification work will also be beneficial.

A relevant Masters degree may be beneficial either within geological or environmental science disciplines.

The responsibilities for this position will include, but are not limited to the following:

• Writing of Phase 1 and Phase 2 reports;
• Design, set up and management of site investigations, including logging of soils and rocks;
• Management of site based sub-contractors;
• Recording and interpretation of site data;
• Scheduling of chemical and geotechnical testing;
• DQRAs; and,
• Preparation of generic and site specific health and safety risk assessments.

The ideal candidate should have experience with the use of borehole software such as Openground/AGS and have excellent MS Word and Excel skills, as well as a basic knowledge of CAD.

As the role will involve both client and regulator liaison, strong communication and report writing skills will be required.

Applicants should have membership of a professional organisation such as the Geological Society or CIWEM, ideally working towards Chartered Status.

This is a permanent position with a company vehicle and other benefits, including a discretionary bonus scheme.
