Part of the Celnor Group
Celnor Group is a UK-based environmental services group operating across the Testing, Inspection, Certification and Compliance (TICC) landscape. With a growing portfolio of specialist businesses, Celnor provides essential services that protect people, property and the environment.
While each business retains its own identity, culture and technical specialism, all are supported by a central group function that invests in people, systems and long-term sustainable growth.
About the Role
Due to continued business growth, we are seeking a Hydrographic Surveyor to join our team in Shropshire.
This role offers the opportunity to work across a diverse range of inshore, nearshore, port and harbour survey projects, typically delivered over days rather than extended offshore deployments. Reporting to the Senior Hydrographic Surveyor, you will play an active role in survey design, data acquisition, processing and project delivery while gaining exposure to a broad range of geospatial and geophysical technologies.
The position would suit an experienced Hydrographic Surveyor looking to broaden their technical expertise or a graduate seeking to build a diverse career within survey, geospatial and marine technologies.
