Role Summary

As a Site Surveyor at XYZ Reality, you will be responsible for establishing and maintaining both primary and secondary control on‑site using a Robotic Total Station to enable the usage of the Atom.

• Processing and reviewing all acquired data to ensure it is accurate and reliable.
• Reporting to the Field Operations Manager, maintaining an efficient workflow and ensuring all requested inspections are conducted within the specified time frame.
• Working with the Contractor to devise a weekly lookahead of inspections in line with the master construction programme to de‑risk incorrect installation from taking place in the field.
• Obtaining and preparing the latest approved Revit models to export into HoloSite.

Skills, Knowledge and Expertise

• Experience in construction surveying or engineering surveying.
• Strong experience using Robotic Total Stations for construction layout and control.
• Experience working on large‑scale construction or infrastructure projects is preferred.
• Knowledge related to 3D software (Revit, Navisworks etc) or BIM / BIM360 is desirable but not essential and can be taught.
• Must be confident in using Microsoft Office.
