Description:
Hydrogeologist
London or Newcastle
£32,000 - £40,000 + Benefits
Got your first couple of years in Hydrogeology behind you and looking for more responsibility across both site work and technical assessment?
This is a good opportunity to build broader experience rather than becoming tied to one particular type of project. You'll join an established Hydrogeology & Water team, working across infrastructure, renewables, minerals, waste and property projects from initial investigation through to assessment and reporting.
The Role
You'll be involved in:
* Hydrogeological site investigations and site walkovers
* Supervising borehole drilling, geological logging and well installation
* Groundwater and surface water monitoring programmes
* Interpreting monitoring data and developing Conceptual Site Models
* Hydrogeological Risk Assessments and Impact Appraisals
* Hydrogeological calculations and groundwater modelling
* Groundwater abstraction licensing
* EIA water chapters and technical reporting
There is a good mix of practical and technical work, alongside experienced Hydrogeologists and wider environmental and engineering teams.
About You
You'll ideally have 1-3 years' Hydrogeology experience within consultancy or a similar commercial environment, with a degree in Hydrogeology, Geology, Earth Sciences or a related subject.
A grounding in site investigation, water monitoring and hydrogeological assessment is important. Experience of groundwater modelling, abstraction licensing or EIA would be useful, but you don't need to have covered everything.
A full UK driving licence is required.
Why Apply?
The attraction here is the breadth of work and the opportunity to develop technically while gradually taking on more responsibility.
The package includes £32,000 - £40,000, discretionary bonus, hybrid/flexible working, private medical insurance, pension, 25 days' holiday and structured support towards Chartership and professional development.
If this role feels close but not quite perfect, please do not be put off from applying. I specialise in Civil Engineering, Water and Flood Risk recruitment and may also be able to help with other suitable roles that are not currently advertised.
