About the Role

Our business is growing and we are expanding our digital expertise. We are looking for a GIS professional to join our team to support a wide range of environmental and engineering projects. Your analytical acumen and passion for technical solutions will be essential in gathering, analysing, and visualising spatial data to inform critical decision-making and deliver actionable insights.

The Pell Frischmann team works on a diverse range of schemes and you will be involved with leading and contributing to data and information management and analysis on a variety of projects including within the road, water, rail or housing sectors throughout the UK. The role would also involve support and trouble-shooting across various technical teams, and the training of GIS champions across the business.

Main Duties and Responsibilities

Data Collection and Management:

  • Conduct field data collection using GPS and other survey equipment, ensuring data accuracy and integrity.
  • Develop, maintain and provide support for robust GIS databases, ensuring data quality, organisation, and accessibility.

Spatial Analysis:

  • Perform advanced spatial analysis to identify patterns, trends, and potential impacts.
  • Master GIS software such as ArcGIS or QGIS to perform overlay analysis, network analysis, suitability modelling, and change detection.
  • Apply geostatistical techniques to analyse and interpret data for informed decision-making.

Cartographic Visualisation:

  • Create compelling maps, illustrations, and visual representations to communicate complex environmental findings clearly.
  • Design maps that effectively highlight project constraints, site characteristics, environmental sensitivities, and potential solutions.
  • Translate technical information into formats understandable by clients, stakeholders, and the wider public.

Technical Assessments:

  • Support (and lead where appropriate/necessary) a range of analytical geospatial tasks in the environment team and across the business, including for example:
  • Conduct geospatial analysis for Environmental Impact Assessments (EIAs), supporting project planning and sustainable design across multiple discipline areas.
  • Assess potential environmental risks and constraints affecting engineering projects.
  • Assist in site selection studies, optimising project placement while minimising environmental and understanding transport impacts.
  • Review, analyse and present transport-based geospatial information, including highway modelling inputs/outputs, census-based data and site accessibility information.
  • Provide support for flood risk mapping and analysis, including use of LiDAR elevation geodata and integrating with hydrological modelling tools.
  • Aid the adoption and integration of geospatial processes in engineering challenges across the business including structural engineering, buildings, bridges, rail, highways and general civil engineering challenges.

Reporting and Collaboration:

  • Prepare clear and concise technical reports summarising GIS analyses and findings.
  • Communicate effectively with engineers, project managers, environmental scientists, and stakeholders to ensure the effective integration of GIS insights into projects.
  • Participate in multidisciplinary teams, contributing your GIS expertise to solve complex environmental challenges within projects.
