AtkinsRéalis are recruiting for a dynamic and motivated Senior Geophysicist based in our Bristol, Epsom, Glasgow, Leeds, London or Manchester office to help support our rapidly increasing workload in the UK. We need to increase our team to meet the growing demands from our clients, especially in the infrastructure sector (particularly rail, highways & water) and the energy sector, which includes carbon capture & storage, renewable energy (wind, current and hydropower), low carbon engineering and nuclear power. We are looking for people with the drive and enthusiasm to embrace the future. Rapid career development will be possible for the right candidates. We have the depth of knowledge and breadth of expertise to help you build a bright career in these exciting and rapidly evolving sectors.
Requirements:
The successful applicant will be a Geophysicist with a postgraduate qualification (MSc or PhD) in a Geophysical subject coupled with demonstrable and extensive experience in the application of near-surface geophysics to onshore engineering and geotechnical projects. It is expected that the applicant will be a Chartered Geologist (or in the process of applying for their Chartered Geologist status) with a specialist in Near-Surface Geophysics.
As a consultancy, we specialise in advising our clients in the most appropriate geophysical approaches to overcome challenges in ground engineering projects. This role is a unique opportunity to work in an expanding near-surface geophysical capability with a diverse project portfolio within our Ground Engineering & Tunnelling team and beyond. We want a candidate with the flare, ability and collegiality to help us develop and expand our geophysical capability, which is built on a reputation for technical excellence. The candidate will contribute to this by applying their skills in geophysics along with their track record of client engagement and winning work to build our expanding, flexible and outward looking geophysics capability.
For the Senior Geophysicist position the successful candidate will be expected to take immediate ownership and lead project delivery and training with our early-career staff, as well as take responsibility for building relationships with clients to expand our offering. We seek a collaborator, someone who is stimulated by a dynamic workload in a fast-paced environment, and who enjoys working as part of a group of specialists to deliver relevant and technically excellent geophysical consulting services to a broad range of clients.
Essential criteria:
- A strong academic background with a relevant degree and a postgraduate qualification (MSc or PhD) in Geophysics.
- Chartered Geologist status (or in the process of applying for Chartered Geologist status) with a specialism in Near-Surface Geophysics.
- Years of experience in onshore geophysics with a focus on near-surface techniques applied to the fields of geotechnics and / or engineering geology.
- Extensive field experience in a range of geophysical field techniques and associated geophysical processing software (e.g., Res2DInv, Seisimager, SurfSeis, Geolitix etc. and / or open-source applications) and visualisation software (e.g., Oasis montaj, Leapfrog, Civils 3D, Paraview, etc.).
- Demonstrable experience of field survey design and management of long-term or complex surveys, including project and data management skills, management of site health and safety, knowledge of CDM regulations, etc.
- Excellent communication skills and confidence to translate the needs of clients, specify techniques for our contractors, and communicate findings with and inspire non-geophysicists.
- The technical authority, based on experience and skills, to be able to identify and challenge data quality issues, and work towards solutions for remedying these where applicable.
- Excellent report writing skills with the ability to self-check and produce technically excellent work.
- A willingness to travel on short assignments both within the UK and overseas.
- A valid UK driving licence.
Desirable criteria:
- Experience with Python (or similar programming) for geoscientific purposes.
- Experience with novel and emerging geophysical techniques (e.g., drone-based techniques, fibre optic based techniques, nodal seismic deployments, machine-learning, etc.).
- Demonstrable engagement with academic and early-career community (e.g., publication record, university careers talk, etc.).
