Job description

About us

Survey Solutions is a leading engineering surveyor specialising in land, measured building and underground utility surveys, as well as monitoring and site engineering schemes. We have a network of ten offices across the UK. Our surveyors and engineers work on some of the UK’s major construction and infrastructure developments.

We’re growing and are looking to appoint Land Surveyors to join the land departments in our offices nationwide.

The role

As a Surveyor at Survey Solutions, you will work independently on a full range of small to large-scale topographical, measured building and setting-out surveys. You’ll use innovative technology and process the data in the office to a high working standard. You’ll be confident working on multi-disciplined survey projects and will have a good understanding of different surveying methods and data capture.

You’ll also share your expertise with less experienced team members, both on site and in the office, to help them develop.

This is a full-time role. Office hours are Monday to Friday, 9.00 to 5.30, but site hours vary, so some overtime and occasional weekend working will be needed. You’ll work on projects across your local region and should live within a reasonable distance of one of our offices.
