Description
Job Location: Sunbury-on-Thames
Industry: Oil and Energy, Geoscience
Role Overview:
You will be part of an integrated Site Assessment (survey acquisition) and Ground Engineering team providing site survey and developing fit-for-purpose ground models and ground-engineering for bid assessment through design, construction, and operation.
What you will do:
Provide geohazards expertise across bp’s offshore wind portfolio through the project lifecycle, including:
* Geohazard survey and consultancy scoping and technical oversight in survey and consultancy execution
* Ground modelling and geohazard management for permanent and temporary works
* Ensure geohazard (seismicity, shallow gas, slope instability, etc.) and obstructions (challenging seafloor and seabed conditions, debris, boulders, UXO, etc.) identification, assessment, and mitigation, for appropriate depths of interest (e.g., cable or foundation), by avoidance or by design at wind farm sites, cable routes, landfalls, and onshore facilities, during site investigation and project design and execution.
* Work within an integrated geoscience team to build fit-for-purpose ground models for wind farm engineering.
* Quantify and present ground engineering risks to relevant stakeholders to ensure they are understood, controlled, and continuously reduced across the business.
* Collaborate with safety, consent, and procurement teams to ensure robust execution of works.
* Collaborate with foundation, transmission engineering, and construction disciplines to safely deliver site investigations and project infrastructure.
* Ensure safe and cost-efficient design and integrity management throughout asset life in accordance with bp and industry standards.
* Maintain relationships with third-party suppliers, contractors, and partners.
* Actively contribute to technology development and share knowledge within the geohazards and geophysics communities of practice.

* Excellent communication skills in English, both written and verbal.
* Ability to manage time effectively, working with distributed teams across time zones.
* Proven experience working in multidisciplinary teams and on major projects with minimal supervision.
* Strong stakeholder management and collaboration skills, comfortable reporting to senior management.
* Masters or PhD in a relevant discipline.
* Membership in relevant industry panels or standards organizations (e.g., SUT, OGP, ISO).
* Basic understanding of soil and rock geophysics.
* Experience with geohazard software (e.g., IHS Kingdom, Petrel).
* Experience interpreting advanced cone penetration tests and down-hole geophysical logs.
* Awareness of machine-learning in geo-data, foundation design, transmission system design, and energy yield assessments.
* Experience working remotely.
* Experience coaching and mentoring junior team members.
