Are you looking for a role where your technical expertise makes a real difference? Consortium Professional Recruitment are pleased to be partnering with an established engineering consultancy to recruit a Geotechnical Site Engineer. This is a UK-wide opportunity offering flexibility around your location, with occasional visits to the company's Tadcaster office. You'll have the chance to work on varied projects across the country while being part of a supportive and experienced engineering team.

This is an opportunity to work on a diverse range of ground investigation and engineering projects across the UK. You'll combine practical site experience with technical analysis and reporting, working alongside experienced professionals who value collaboration, quality and professional development.

The Opportunity:
As a Geotechnical Site Engineer, you'll play a key role in:

• Planning, supervising and delivering geotechnical and geoenvironmental ground investigations, ensuring projects meet quality, safety and budget requirements.
• Managing subcontractors and coordinating site activities, including soil logging, sampling and site reconnaissance.
• Preparing and reviewing factual and interpretative ground investigation reports, contributing to ground model development and refinement.
• Supporting feasibility studies, technical assessments and foundation design activities in line with British Standards and Eurocodes.
• Working collaboratively with clients, colleagues and project teams to deliver practical engineering solutions and maintain high standards of health and safety.

Your work will directly contribute to the successful delivery of engineering projects, helping clients make informed decisions about ground conditions, design and construction.

• Confidence preparing technical reports, interpreting engineering information and communicating with colleagues, contractors and clients.
• A valid UK driving licence, or a licence acceptable to the employer's insurers, and the ability to travel to project sites across the UK.

Experience using GIS software such as ArcGIS or QGIS would be beneficial. Familiarity with CAD, geotechnical design software or structural analysis packages would also be welcome, although these are not essential.

Professional institution membership or progress towards chartership with ICE or the Geological Society would be an advantage.

Above all, you'll bring a collaborative approach, curiosity and a commitment to delivering quality work. You don't need to meet every desirable criterion to be considered. If you have relevant experience and are keen to develop, we'd encourage you to apply.
