- 20/10 & 2/1, 8/6 rosters,



depending on project requirements – flexibility is a must!

Why This Role?

This is more than another FIFO surveying job.

You’ll be given the opportunity to develop a specialist skillset in hydrographic surveying, dredging and marine construction including exposure to:

- Bathymetric and hydrographic surveying
- Survey control and set‑out

- Machine control and digital construction systems

All whilst working alongside experienced professionals who will guide and support your development on major projects across Australia.
