** What is our Placement Surveyor programme?
** Our Placement Surveying programme is a 12-month programme designed to give you a comprehensive exposure to surveying within Utilities & Infrastructure. Through working on live projects, learning from industry experts and networking opportunities, we will help you to building your technical and professional skills needed for a career and to make the valuable contributions towards your academic fulfilments for your degree.
** What will you get up to? What does the job involve?
** In a nutshell, our Placement Surveyors will be working on utilities and infrastructure projects helping to manage land-related issues during the development of infrastructure like pipelines, power lines, or roads. Their role includes negotiating access agreements, assessing and handling compensation claims for landowners, ensuring compliance with regulations, and minimising the impact of projects on agricultural land and rural properties. You will act as the valuable intermediary between our clients and landowners, overseeing effective land access and management while ensuring fair compensation and resolving disputes.
** A day in the life of a Placement Surveyor is highly varied and could involve any of the following:
*** Providing expertise: supporting with the delivery of land and property advice to a range of clients, helping them to make informed decisions.
* Heads of terms and licences: assisting with Heads of terms and contractual agreements with stakeholders on behalf of clients to aid the delivery of infrastructure projects.
* Site noticing: getting out and about with your colleagues putting up notices to inform land owners of client schemes.
* Records of condition: helping the team to review and advise on various different land types, undertaking schedules of condition of private land.
* Site visits: witnessing the tangible impact your work is having on Utilities & Infrastructure throughout the UK by seeing the projects in-person and monitoring their progress.
* Compensation and valuation: assessing the financial impact of infrastructure projects, agreeing compensation claims; think valuation of land and property, agricultural losses, and general disturbance.
* Handling landlord and tenant relationships: supporting with tenancy agreements and ensuring legal compliance.
* Problem solving: working with the wider DM team and your clients to problem solve, advise on risks and reach solutions.
* Data and technology: delivering large scale schemes through innovative big data, technology and reporting functions
** What do we need from you?
** We don’t expect you to be an expert from day one, we're seeking the right combination of skills and attributes, like proactivity, problem-solving and a keen eye for detail that will contribute to your success.
