• Complete geotechnical engineering aspects for SURF scopes, collaborating with the wider team.
• Evaluate the quality of available site investigation data for offshore energy projects and specify site investigations when required.
• Interpret and use offshore site investigation data, integrating results into ground models and deriving parameters for the detailed design of subsea infrastructure.
• Undertake detailed design and installation of gravity-based, piled, and suction-installed foundations, evaluating and recommending reeled-pipe-lay initiation anchorage.
• Use limit analysis for estimation of collapse load for foundations subject to complex loading, such as PLAXIS or OPTUM G3.
• Perform geotechnical risk assessments and identify geo-hazards and ground risk levels.
• Design, execute, and manage mechanical protection trenching & rock dumping scopes, completing seabed preparation analysis ahead of product/structure installation.
• Participate in offshore assignments, such as supervising offshore site investigations, foundation installation, and mechanical protection of products, as required.

• Degree qualified in a relevant subject, such as Civil Engineering with a specialization in Geotechnical Engineering. A Master's level qualification would be advantageous.
• Demonstrable role-relevant experience, with a working understanding of offshore site investigations, foundation design, product/soil interaction, and product mechanical protection aspects.
• Practical experience of GIS data systems, such as ArcGIS and ArcMAP, is beneficial but not essential.
• Effective interpersonal and communication skills, building and maintaining positive internal/external collaborative relationships and providing mentorship and guidance.
• Commercially aware with effective planning and organizing skills, able to identify and effectively prioritize workload and efficiently meet multiple, often competing deadlines.
