• Integrate geospatial datasets (survey, CAD, GIS, BIM, remote sensing) and produce drawings, models, and deliverables to project standards.
• Prepare survey methodologies, risk assessments, and work packs; select equipment and resources to meet scope, schedule, and budget.
• Manage data in common environments (CDE) and adhere to information management protocols, naming conventions, and version control.
• Liaise with clients, landowners, authorities, and internal teams to clarify requirements and constraints.
• Ensure all activities comply with Health, Safety & Environment (HSE) standards and site rules; lead by example in the field.
