Surveying Technician

Up to £25,000 plus excellent benefits

Our staff are our most valuable asset

Michael Dyson Associates Ltd is an established, successful and prominent multi‑disciplinary construction consultancy providing a comprehensive range of professional services to the social housing sector. Established in 1980 we have four decades of wide‑range experience working with clients throughout the UK.

With a salary up to £25,000 and based at our modern Head Office in Huddersfield this is a fantastic opportunity to join our Asset Management Team as a Surveying Technician to undertake a variety of challenging and hands‑on surveying projects throughout the UK. The role involves the inspection and assessment of residential properties, including non‑traditional properties and high‑rise blocks. The work you will undertake will confirm the constructed form, identify defects and enable our clients to adequately plan property management for the future.

Assessments are usually invasive in nature and will involve the use of hand and power tools to open up the fabric of a building. This enables the collection of information on the building’s construction and condition so the Project Manager can produce reports. You will also be trained in the use of specialist concrete testing equipment to take samples of concrete and undertake on‑site testing of structural components.

This is an excellent opportunity to specialise in working with buildings of non‑standard construction while working alongside Chartered Surveyors.

• Full, clean driving licence
• Studying a construction‑related course (applicants on day release will be considered) would be beneficial.
• A can‑do attitude and excellent work ethic.
• A drive to succeed in a challenging environment.
• A willingness to work in a team environment.
• Willingness to work throughout the UK; overnight stays will be required and all hotel costs, expenses and an overnight allowance will be covered.

• Be part of a modern, growing, forward‑thinking consultancy
• Up to 30 days annual leave plus bank holidays
• 9‑day fortnight rota option for flexible work/life balance opportunities
• Bonus schemes
• 3‑5% contributory pension scheme and four times salary life assurance
• Regular performance and salary reviews to ensure our people progress in their careers
• Payment of Professional Institute training/examination fees/subscription fees
• Excellent fully funded training programme with regular in‑house CPD events to support career development
• Fun social & team‑building events organised & paid for by the company
