Our early careers programme gives you the chance to connect with others across the region / business who are also starting their career, as well as mentoring, Chartership support & bonuses and more., Our Geo-environmental team undertakes a diverse range of projects across various sectors, to deliver geo-environmental and geotechnical consultancy services backed up by in-house ground investigation services. We have an opportunity for two Graduate Engineering Geologist or Geo-environmental Consultants to join our Geo-environment team working in contaminated land, geotechnical assessment, site investigation and brownfield redevelopment across a variety of market sectors including property & regeneration, utilities, defence estates and transport.
