Being part of the Geospatial discipline, we put space and place at the heart of project delivery. From early options to long term operation, we help teams see context, cut risk and communicate clearly. Our graduates turn spatial data into simple stories across sectors. The result is connected data, better decisions and sustainable outcomes that benefit local communities and the planet.
Opportunity

You will be joining a technical delivery team with a varied and challenging workload within geospatial and the wider digital services portfolio. You may be working on a variety of projects of national and global importance, including major infrastructure schemes, as well as strategic and master planning projects, and the opportunity to pursue research and develop in areas that interest you.
Day-to-day tasks will include GIS support for data management, data manipulation and visualisation, and automation. You will have the opportunity to use a range of tools and software depending on interests and project needs, and to develop your core GIS and Enterprise skills throughout your career journey.
