I''m working with a well-established multidisciplinary engineering consultancy that is looking to appoint an experienced Associate Geotechnical Engineer to join its London team.


The business has a strong reputation across the built environment, delivering engineering and environmental services across sectors including residential, commercial, education, healthcare, regeneration and infrastructure.

Key responsibilities will include:

  • Managing geotechnical and geo-environmental projects from inception through to completion.

  • Liaising directly with clients, contractors and multidisciplinary project teams.
  • Supporting fee proposals and contributing to business development.
  • Developing and maintaining strong client relationships.
  • Supporting the continued growth of the geotechnical team.

  • Excellent communication and client-facing skills.

The role would suit a Senior or Principal Geotechnical Engineer looking to step into an Associate position, or an existing Associate looking for a new challenge.



What''s On Offer
