You will work closely with our technical specialists who are based in our established teams across Ireland, both the Republic and in the North, and in the UK. We have a friendly and approachable team with a strong reputation for delivering excellence with multiple clients.

Your role

  • With a degree in science, engineering or mathematics.
  • A post-graduate qualification in hydromorphology or geomorphology, or a related subject, would be desirable.
  • You will have hands-on, in-the-field, practical experience of hydromorphological assessment of river channels and water courses.
  • You will have experience as a hydromorphologist.
  • You will preferably understand fluvial geomorphology / hydromorphology in relation to its role in determining Good Ecological Status/Potential under the Water Framework Directive.
  • Your experience will include geomorphology and hydromorphology, for example work on natural flood management, nature restoration, channel creation, maintenance and management.
  • You will have experience of delivering parts of, or whole, project tasks, such as data collection, data and information analysis, interpretation and drawing succinct conclusions and recommendations.
  • You will have good numerical, analytical, report-writing and presentational skills and an eye for detail.
  • You will be highly motivated and proactive and enjoy solving challenging fluvial geomorphological problems within a high achieving team environment.
  • You will be able to communicate effectively with your colleagues to support collaborative working.
  • You will have valid full, clean, Irish driving license.
