As my Client's business continues to grow and develop, we are looking for an enthusiastic Land Surveyor to work within the Civils department.
 
 
Land Surveying is the Science of Measuring and Mapping responsible for making exact measurements and determine property boundaries. Provide data relevant to the shape, contour, gravitation, location, elevation, or dimension of land or land features on or near the earth's surface for engineering, mapmaking, mining, land evaluation, construction, and other purposes.
 

What are the benefits?
·Company Pension scheme
·Private Medical Cover
·Life Assurance schemes
·Company Car Allowance
·Full company benefits package
What is required?
 
·Measuring the ground as required by the Client or Project Manager, including aspects such as small and large-scale distances, angles and elevations.
·Topographical Surveys:  gathering data on the earth's physical and man-made features through surveys.
·Topographic survey and calculations of cut & fill, Volume of Stockpiles using AutoCAD & NRG Surveying Software.
·Processing data and the production of digital mapping from the Processed Surveys.
·Making use of geographical information systems (GIS) to analyse and interpret site features.
·Producing detailed information (subsequently analysed by planners, builders and cartographers).
·Interpreting data using maps, charts and plans.
·Utilizing data from a range of sources, such as aerial photography, satellite surveys and laser Scanners.
·Computer-aided design (CAD) and other IT software to interpret data and present information.
