* Collaboration: Work closely with senior geotechnical engineers and other teams on collaborative projects involving civil and structural engineering.
* Health & Safety: Ensure all work complies with the latest health, safety, and environmental regulations.
* Client Interaction: Liaise with clients, providing technical support and ensuring project specifications are met.
Qualifications & Experience:
* A degree in Civil Engineering, Geotechnical Engineering, Engineering Geology, Geology, Environmental Sciences, or related discipline.
* MSc in Geotechnical Engineering, Engineering Geology, or Geoscience (preferred).
* Experience: 3-5 years of geotechnical design experience, including slope stability, earthworks, and remediation.
* Proficient in Phase 1 and Phase 2 reports (preferred but not essential).
* Chartered or near-chartered status from an appropriate professional body (ICE or similar).
* Solid understanding of slope stability, remediation of embankments and cuttings, and geotechnical design for civil infrastructure projects.
* Familiarity with civil infrastructure.
* Full UK Driving Licence.
Key Skills:
* Strong understanding of geotechnical engineering principles including foundation design, retaining walls, and earthworks.
* Interpretive reporting and analysis skills.
* Ability to manage multiple projects simultaneously and deliver within deadlines.
* Excellent communication skills to work effectively with clients and project teams.
* Knowledge of health and safety standards and best practices in construction and engineering.
What's in it for You:
* Competitive salary package based on experience.
* Opportunities for growth and development, progressing to project management and leadership roles.

* Work on a variety of complex, high-profile projects across civil and commercial infrastructure.
