We’re on the lookout for a talented Registered Cadastral Surveyor (SBQ) to join our team. This role is designed with flexibility in mind — you can balance field and office work or lean into a more office-based focus if that suits you better.

Project delivery – office-based cadastral work & project coordination

QA of plans and checking compliance with DA conditions

Mentoring and supporting our junior and graduate team members

Providing technical advice to help shape our methodologies and processes

Contributing to quoting and scoping conversations

Communicating effectively with both clients and internal teams

Hold SBQ registration with Cadastral Endorsement

Are confident in cadastral reductions, drafting, titling, and QA processes

Have strong communication skills and enjoy working in a team
