Geotechnical Engineer Jobs

Geotechnical engineer roles apply soil and rock mechanics to design foundations, slopes, retaining walls, embankments, and underground works. Employers include civil and geotechnical consultancies, contractors, mining and tunnel operators, and public infrastructure bodies—often alongside engineering geologists on ground investigation and construction teams.

• Analyse in‑situ and laboratory test data to derive design parameters
• Develop geotechnical models for stability, settlement, bearing capacity, and groundwater effects
• Support temporary works, excavation sequences, monitoring, and risk mitigation on site
