The Company
Ambler Group is looking to expand its team by taking on a Trainee Surveyor. We're a leading surveying company specializing in Utility, GPR, Topographical and CCTV surveys. Our work takes us to a wide variety of sites, including MOD facilities, airports, schools, local authority projects and National Highways schemes. We're looking for someone who's keen to learn, enjoys working outdoors, and wants to become a valued member of our surveying team.
The Role
This is a full-time, on-site role working alongside our experienced CCTV Drainage Surveyors. As a Trainee CCTV Drainage Surveyor, you'll assist with day-to-day survey work while learning the skills needed to carry out drainage surveys independently.

- Setting up and operating CCTV survey equipment.

- Supporting senior surveyors throughout the survey process.
We work across the UK, so occasional travel and overnight stays will be required. A company vehicle and fuel card will be provided. Hotel accommodation is fully covered by us, and you'll receive an uplift in pay when working away.
This role is ideal for someone with little or no previous experience who is looking to build a long-term career in the surveying industry. Through our in-house training program, you'll have the opportunity to progress to Surveyor, Senior Surveyor and beyond as your experience grows.
