START HERE. GROW HERE.

Are you ready to challenge the boundaries of what’s possible? We’re seeking a dynamic Geotechnical Engineer or Engineering Geologist who brings not only their technical expertise but also an innovative mindset. Whether you come from a traditional geotechnical engineering/engineering geology background or have unconventional experience that adds fresh value, we’d love to hear from you.
We’re looking for a Geotechnical Engineer or Engineering Geologist, to join our Ground Engineering team in Bristol.

READY TO PUSH THE LIMITS OF WHAT’S POSSIBLE?

Here’s what we’re looking for:

• BEng / MEng in Civil Engineering, BSc / MSc in Geology, Engineering Geology, or Earth Science or MSc in Geotechnical Engineering or Engineering Geology is desirable.
• Chartered Engineer (IEng/CEng) or Chartered Geologist (Cgeol) status is desirable but not a must. If you have a plan and want to achieve this then the team will provide the necessary support to achieve this.
• Demonstrable understanding of current design codes, standards, and best practices in geotechnical design, but also open to exploring new methods and innovations.
• Ability to collaborate closely in project delivery and maintaining high levels of client satisfaction.
• Experience in authoring Geotechnical Desktop Studies, Geotechnical Specifications and Interpretative Geotechnical Reports.
• Knowledge of typical ground conditions interpretation/parametric assessment and correlation methods applicable to common geotechnical design problems.
• Ideally experience in geotechnical design (e.g. earthworks, foundations, retaining structures, slope stabilisation) with strong analytical skills and some experience in the use of relevant geotechnical design software.
• Familiarity with the production of geotechnical analysis and design packages, including drawings, risk assessments, specifications and design reports.
• Good knowledge of UK ground conditions and ground investigation practices. Experience in the design, specification and management of ground investigation (remotely and in the field).
• Application of CDM Regulations / Safety in Design in a design and ground investigation environment.
• Experience with standards and processes in specialised fields (e.g. highways, rail, RIBA stages) is desirable.
• Strong written and verbal communication skills with the ability to write clear and concise technical reports and documents.
• Clean driving licence.
• Candidates should be willing to travel throughout the UK.
