• Leading and supervising survey teams carrying out aerial and engineering surveying activities

• Producing accurate and reliable survey data for construction and design teams
• Managing large-scale control networks and survey coordination
• Ensuring all survey operations meet health, safety, and quality standards
• Coordinating closely with construction, design, and safety teams
• Supporting reporting, data processing, and delivery of survey outputs

• Clear communication and stakeholder engagement skills
• A proactive, problem-solving mindset with the ability to work independently
