The role would suit a candidate with a background and interest in industries such as land construction, archaeology, marine construction, and environmental science.


Key responsibilities will also include:


  • Engaging proactively with clients to discuss project milestones and deliverables throughout the project’s duration, ensuring the seamless exchange of information and providing continuous support for client operations.

  • 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.


Right to Work:


Currently, we are only able to consider applicants who are authorized to work in the UK without visa sponsorship.


At Venterra:


At Venterra, we are committed to inclusion and diversity in everything we do. We take inclusion and diversity seriously.
