Assistant Geospatial Survey Manager

You’ll use your technical experience to plan and deliver topographical, measured building, monitoring, laser scanning and setting-out projects, from initial enquiry and quotation through fieldwork, quality assurance and final delivery.

Every project is different: one day you could be planning a complex topographical survey; the next, reviewing a point cloud, resolving a control issue or helping a team deliver information for a major development or infrastructure project. You’ll collaborate with land, measured building and utility surveyors, geophysicists and GIS specialists.

HOW YOU’LL GROW

You’ll build practical management experience across six areas:

• planning programmes and resources;

• coaching surveyors;

• strengthening client relationships;

• supporting quotations, budgets and project control;

• reviewing deliverables; and

• improving how we work.

This is hands-on experience designed to prepare you for what comes next: structured training, practical management responsibility and professional development support, including CICES membership where appropriate, with the longer-term opportunity to progress into senior management and wider operational leadership.

You’ll probably be operating at Senior Surveyor level, or have equivalent experience in a surveying or geospatial business.

• Strong experience in topographical and measured building surveying, laser scanning and related geospatial disciplines.

• Confident using relevant survey and point-cloud software, including Cyclone, TruView, ReCap, Undet or CloudWorx, CloudCompare, 3DR, Revit and Pix4D.

• Strong planning, organisation and communication skills, with the ability to manage competing priorities and work confidently with clients, colleagues and suppliers.

• A practical, solutions-focused approach, with a sound understanding of project costs and commercial priorities.

• A sharp eye for quality, strong health and safety awareness, good IT skills and a full UK driving licence.

Even better if you’ve already had experience coaching surveyors, preparing quotations, managing budgets or coordinating field and office teams.

£42,000-£50,000 salary depending on experience, plus:

• Support for relevant qualifications, paid professional memberships and access, where appropriate, to our CICES Approved Development Scheme, including structured technical and management training.

• 25 days annual leave a year increasing to 30 with service, plus 8 Bank Holidays.

• Vehicle or company car allowance.
