  • Demonstrating the ability to comprehend client requirements and needs thoroughly.
  • Examining client provided drawings and project/survey specifications meticulously, including a comprehensive review of all technical stipulations.
  • Developing geophysical survey specifications for client tenders and proposals as an integral part of the risk management process.
  • Supplying technical support for tenders to both clients and internal proposal teams.
  • Assessing incoming geophysical data from clients against the expected project outcomes.
  • Analysing project data and generating offshore reports for detailed investigation, employing GIS, Oasis Montaj, and additional software tools for data analysis.
  • Creating GIS charts to effectively present and communicate data to clients in both report and technical formats.
  • Aiding in the development of GIS projects for clients, along with updating and managing relevant spreadsheets.
  • Composing technical reports, including project bridging documents, technical notes, and final project certifications.
  • Editing, proofreading, and evaluating internal client representative reports before distribution to clients.
  • Conducting research into emerging technologies and equipment relevant to offshore geophysical surveys.
  • Keeping project and database-related spreadsheets current for tracking and invoicing purposes.
  • Organising database information through filing, updating, and managing internal documents and data.
  • Guiding less experienced staff by imparting knowledge and offering counsel in familiar areas.
  • Experience in the technique of ground modelling.


Desired Experience:


  • Strong analytical and problem-solving skills.
  • Excellent communication skills, both written and verbal.
  • GIS (ArcMap/ArcPro, QGIS) experience advantageous.
  • Exceptional IT skills.
  • The ability to work as a part of a team.
  • Ability to work under pressure and complete tasks to tight deadlines.
  • High levels of accuracy and attention to detail.
  • A full driver’s licence.
  • 2-5 years relevant experience in Geoscience.


Education/Qualifications:


  • A University Degree or Masters in geophysics, or related disciplines.


Additional Requirements:


Candidates should also be highly organised and motivated individuals with effective communication skills, a good work ethic, and a commitment to technical excellence, personal efficiency, and career progression through Continued Professional Development. Own transport is essential due to the location of the office.


At Venterra:


At Venterra, we are committed to inclusion and diversity in everything we do. We take inclusion and diversity seriously. We know that getting this right is critical for us to live our organisation’s values. We are always trying to improve our way of working to be more inclusive and equal.
