You’ll be outside away from stuffy offices working on a wide variety of sites and major projects carrying out on‑site testing and sampling activities.

There will be some early starts with travelling - but who likes to be in the same place day in day out? You may even be asked to stay away or work night shifts now and again - but that adds to the excitement of a new career right? (We of course, pay allowances for this too.)
