Role Overview

As a Senior Utilities Surveyor, you will lead the delivery of PAS128-compliant utilities surveys, working closely with Survey Leads, delivery teams and clients. You will balance hands on surveying with oversight of data quality, programme and on site coordination, while supporting the development of less experienced colleagues. This is a practical, delivery focused role with responsibility, autonomy and variety.

You'll be an experienced surveyor who is comfortable being the most knowledgeable person on site, making decisions on approach, safety and quality, and seeing work through from mobilisation to handover. You will work across a wide range of environments, including infrastructure, rail and complex underground settings, using modern survey technology as part of an established national team.

Responsibilities:

• Leading PAS128-compliant utilities surveys from site mobilisation through to handover
• Taking responsibility on site for safety, quality, approach and delivery
• Locating underground services using electromagnetic locating and ground penetrating radar
• Carrying out total station and GNSS observations
• Processing EML and GPR data using AutoCAD, IQMaps and Geolitix
• Managing survey data in line with company standards and project requirements
• Working with Survey Leads and project teams to agree the most appropriate methods and technology
• Coordinating with clients, subcontractors and other site teams
• Supporting and mentoring junior surveyors, sharing knowledge and providing feedback
• Working flexibly, including occasional night work or work away from home when required

You will have:

• Proven experience delivering utilities surveys to PAS128 standards
• Confidence using GPR, electromagnetic locating and TPS or GNSS equipment
• Strong AutoCAD skills and experience processing survey data
• Experience with confined spaces, sewer surveys, laser scanning or rail environments is useful, but not essential.
• Experience supporting or supervising junior surveyors
• The ability to manage multiple tasks and priorities across live projects
• Flexibility around working hours and location
• A full, clean UK driving licence and the right to work in the UK
