  • Undertake setting out duties for construction works
  • Liaise with design, engineering and site management teams
  • Verify dimensions and site data against project drawings

  • Ability to interpret engineering drawings and specifications
  • Valid CSCS Card

  • Ability to work independently and as part of a project team

If you are an experienced Civil Surveyor with setting out capability and are available for a long-term contract opportunity in the Fleetwood area, we would be pleased to hear from you.
