  • Ensure all works comply with relevant standards, codes of practice, and health, safety, and environmental legislation.

  • Support business growth by promoting the company’s geotechnical services and contributing to future project bids.

  • Strong understanding of ground investigation techniques, risk management, and construction methodology.

  • Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills.

  • Ability to balance multiple priorities and meet deadlines under pressure.
