We are currently looking to expand our Asset Management team with an experienced Land Surveyor.
Main Duties
As a Land Surveyor, you’ll play a key part in delivering high-quality surveys across a diverse range of environments — including aviation, rail, highways, land development, buildings, and water. Reporting directly to the Office Principal Surveyor, you’ll work on exciting projects both in the UK and overseas.
You can be based in our Manchester, Wakefield, Sunderland or Leeds offices, and will have full IT support for remote and home working when required. We’re looking for someone who’s self-motivated, organised, and able to deliver projects on time, on budget, and to the highest standards — often with minimal supervision.
Flexibility is important. You’ll need to regularly travel to sites across the UK, with the possibility of occasional overseas assignments, and be willing to work some night and weekend shifts when needed. You will be needing to use your own vehicle for this role too, but expenses will be paid.
What You’ll Need
* Full UK driving licence and willingness to undertake regular drug and alcohol screening
* CSCS accreditation (required)
* Network Rail PTS accreditation (desirable, but not essential)
* Previous experience post-graduate in a land surveying role
* Full UK right to work as we are not able to sponsor for this role as we have no certificates
Technical Skills
You’ll be confident using:
* Leica Total Stations, digital levels, GNSS receivers, and HD laser scanners
* LSS, SCC, Cyclone, StarNET, AutoCAD, and Microsoft Office 365
Experience maintaining and operating automated monitoring systems would be an advantage — but if not, full training will be provided.

Qualifications
* Degree or HND in Land Surveying, Geomatics, Civil Engineering, or a related discipline.
* Full UK driving licence.
* Right to work in the UK.

* Ability to produce accurate topographical, boundary and as-built surveys.
* Good understanding of coordinate systems, datum, and data management.
* Proficient in use of total stations, GNSS/GPS surveying equipment, and digital levels.
* Experience using Trimble Business Center, Leica Infinity, or similar processing software.
Skills
* Strong attention to detail and problem-solving skills.
* Ability to work independently and as part of a team.
* Effective communication and reporting skills.
* Good organisational and time management abilities.
Preferred
Qualifications
* Network Rail PTS accreditation.
Experience
* Good understanding of coordinate systems, datum, and data management.
* Knowledge of relevant legislation (e.g., Land Registration Act, CDM Regulations).
* Understanding of sustainable surveying technologies and digital twins.
Skills

* Proactive approach to continuous improvement and innovation.
