Job Description:

We are looking for 2 experienced Surveyors to support a 24-hour environmental survey operation in UK waters.

Primary Responsibilities

  • Provide positioning support during environmental survey activities, including:
  • Drop Down Video (DDV) operations
  • Grab sampling operations
  • Operate and monitor:
  • C-Nav GNSS
  • Kongsberg uPAP USBL
  • Maintain accurate acquisition and survey logs.

Additional Scope (Required Experience)

The scope has expanded beyond positioning support, so candidates must also be comfortable providing:

  • QINSY survey support, including:
  • Survey Manager configuration
  • Database management
  • Logfile review and troubleshooting
  • General acquisition support
  • Back deck operations, including:
  • Assisting with USBL beacon deployment and maintenance
  • Supporting winch operations
  • Assisting with A-frame operations
  • General survey and vessel mobilisation tasks as required

Ideal Candidate Profile

  • Previous offshore survey experience within environmental, hydrographic, or geophysical operations.
  • Strong working knowledge of QINSY.
  • Experience with USBL positioning systems, ideally Kongsberg uPAP.
  • Comfortable working both in the survey room and on deck.
  • Strong organisational and logging/documentation skills.
  • Able to work as part of a small team in a fast-paced offshore environment and adapt to changing operational requirements.

Key Requirement

We’re specifically looking for well-rounded surveyors, not purely acquisition personnel. Candidates should be equally comfortable managing survey systems, maintaining accurate data and logs, and providing practical support on deck when required.
