Cultural aspects
- Both seniors are experienced, but on the upswing of the careers – driven and enthusiastic about this sector

- This will best suit if you the foundation to be a self-starter / take initiative and are motivated to continue to learn and develop in your surveying career
- The tech services team has worked hard to ensure a culture of openness and availability across the function, in line with the wider business’s approach
Further details
