But we’re always looking for new talent to take the next step with us. For bright minds who enjoy meaningful work and want to push our pioneering spirit further.

In the position of Surveyor, you will play a crucial role in conducting survey and positioning activities, and ensuring a high level of quality control on survey vessels. Opportunities for involvement span across our various service lines, including Positioning & Construction Support (PCS), Inspection, Repair and Maintenance (IRM), and Geophysical domains.

As a Trainee Surveyor, you will actively participate in and learn the intricacies of setting up, testing, calibrating, and operating a diverse range of survey and positioning systems. This role not only provides hands-on experience but also facilitates the development of a comprehensive understanding of engineering, processing, ROV, and marine disciplines.
