Senior Utilities Surveyor

Let’s Talk About The Role:

As a Senior Utilities Surveyor, you will lead the delivery of PAS128-compliant utilities surveys, working closely with Survey Leads, delivery teams and clients. You will balance hands-on surveying with oversight of data quality, programme and on-site coordination, while supporting the development of less experienced colleagues. This is a practical, delivery-focused role with responsibility, autonomy and variety.

What will you be doing?

• Leading PAS128-compliant utilities surveys from site mobilisation through to handover
• Taking responsibility on site for safety, quality, approach and delivery
• Locating underground services using electromagnetic locating and ground penetrating radar
• Carrying out total station and GNSS observations
• Processing EML and GPR data using AutoCAD, IQMaps and Geolitix
• Managing survey data in line with company standards and project requirements
• Working with Survey Leads and project teams to agree the most appropriate methods and technology
• Coordinating with clients, subcontractors and other site teams
• Monitoring progress, reporting updates and supporting projects to programme and budget
• Supporting and mentoring junior surveyors, sharing knowledge and providing feedback
• Working flexibly, including occasional night work or work away from home when required

• Experience supporting or supervising junior surveyors
• Flexibility around working hours and location
• A full, clean UK driving licence and the right to work in the UK

• A professional, supportive utilities team that values quality and teamwork
• Investment in equipment, training and technical development
• Clear opportunities to progress as your experience grows
• Competitive salary with performance-related bonus
