• A technical role supporting a large volume of varied activity in an academic department/school/institute or centralised teaching facility.
These posts coincides with the production phase of the ATLAS ITk upgrade. Subject to funding availability, there could be future possibilities of employment within the Department on other projects requiring similar skills and experience.
These roles requires the highest standard of cleanroom working disciplines to be applied. You will be required to work from formal engineering drawings and specifications. Good sensory and physical co-ordination is essential given the small scale and delicate nature of the detectors. Experience of working in a clean room environment and on wire-bonding are highly desirable.

Your life as a surveyor

You'll be absolutely dedicated to meeting deadlines because you know we always keep our promises to clients. And if residents are home when you visit, you'll enjoy chatting to them and acting as something of an ambassador, taking the opportunity to make sure they're happy and committing to getting any issues sorted.

Embrace our new iPad technology to complete homebuyer reports and mortgage valuations
Maintain service and quality requirements to company standards
Report performance issues in key areas to the relevant line manager
Adapt to the changing business needs of the company and our clients to utilise new products and valuation/inspection techniques
