* Work closely with marine geophysicists & geoscientists, engineering geologists, geotechnical engineers and engineering geomorphologists on a wide range of projects.


About You

* Good academic background with a degree (ideally MSc or equivalent) in GIS, subsea engineering or geoscience.
* Experience of acting in a relevant role within the offshore renewables industry, interconnector or telecommunications cables industries or a related field.
* Experience of working as part of a multi‑disciplinary team.
* Experience of offshore cable routing using ArcGIS, Makai Plan or AutoCAD.

* Experience in the use of Geographic Information Systems (GIS) software (ArcGIS, QGIS or similar).


The following qualities are desirable
