• Engineering Geologist and Geotechnical Engineer
• Senior Engineering Geologist and Geotechnical Engineer (Chartered or approaching).
• Principal Engineering Geologist and Geotechnical Engineer (Chartered).
• Associate director Engineering Geologist and Geotechnical Engineer (Chartered)
  We are operating under flexible working arrangements, with a mixture of office-based and home working environments. Bristol office would be the preferred base-office, although other offices, such as Oxford, Reading, London or Glasgow etc can also be considered.

As a Ground Engineering Professional within Amentum, you will play a critical role in managing ground risk by delivering geotechnical assessment, analysis, design and construction supervision to a diverse range of existing and future projects across the UK and internationally. This work will involve:

• Preliminary source, feasibility, value engineering, innovation and sustainability studies.
• Land and overwater ground investigations including advanced in situ and laboratory testing and data management.
• Ground characterisation, parametrisation and modelling of soil and rock.
• Numerical and FE analyses of geotechnical problems, including seismic and dynamic analysis.
• Geotechnical analysis and design of innovative and sustainable structures, including:
• Routine and complex design within soil and rock, SSI and seismic SSSI
• Deep and shallow foundations, retaining walls, basements and cofferdams, Earthworks, reinforced earth and geotextiles, Ground Improvement including vibrational, mixing and grouting methodologies, Ground anchors, soil nails, rock bolts etc
• Specification for construction purposes and Technical construction assurance.
• Providing guidance, support, and supervision to team members, fostering their professional growth and ensuring high-quality deliverables.
• Bid Preparation: Assist in the preparation of bids, ensuring all requirements are met and proposals are compelling and competitive.
