Job Description At LSTC Group Ltd, we're looking for a driven and results-oriented Geotechnical Site Engineer to join our growing project team. If you're passionate about ground investigation, enjoy variety in your workday — from desk study to site supervision to report writing — and want to build your career towards chartership, this role is for you. What you'll be doing Taking projects on a journey: from desk study and site reconnaissance, through ground model development, to site investigation and final geotechnical reporting. Supervising and managing subcontractors on site across the UK, ensuring work is delivered safely, on time and within budget — including occasional out-of-hours and weekend work. Logging and sampling soils to British Standards, and preparing/reviewing factual and interpretive ground investigation reports. Supporting foundation design in line with UK and client standards. Liaising directly with clients — understanding their briefs, agreeing deliverables, and keeping them updated on progress and quality. Preparing budgets, schedules, fees and programmes, and submitting monthly progress reports. Reviewing method statements and risk assessments, and championing health & safety and CDM compliance on every project. Mentoring and supporting less experienced engineers, sharing your knowledge and helping shape the next generation of geotechnical talent. Traveling across the UK to project sites and, where needed, working from our Tadcaster and other LSTC offices. Qualifications What we're looking for A Bachelor's or Master's degree in Civil Engineering, Geology, Geotechnical Engineering or a related field. At least 2 years' experience in ground investigation. Ideally, membership (or progress towards chartership) with ICE or GSL. A valid UK driving licence. Solid understanding of British Standards and Eurocode Design principles. Strong IT skills (MS Office essential; working knowledge of GIS tools like ArcGIS/QGIS a plus; CAD or geotechnical/structural software experience is a bonus). Excellent communication and report-writing skills, high attention to detail, and strong numeracy. A proactive, flexible, self-motivated approach — someone who thrives on variety and enjoys collaborating across disciplines. Additional Information Why join LSTC Group?
