Are you a Surveyor with a background in construction, engineering or the built environment? Are you looking for a role that combines technical surveying, extensive travel and the opportunity to work across some of the UK’s most important operational sites?

VIVO is looking for an Asset Surveyor to join our growing Asset Management team on an initial 12-month Fixed Term Contract, with scope for the role to become permanent.

• Review existing records, identify missing or incorrect data and highlight discrepancies for further investigation.
• Work closely with the Defence Infrastructure Organisation (DIO), clients, site teams and other stakeholders.
• Build strong professional relationships while ensuring survey activity is delivered safely, accurately and to the required standards.
• Benefit from the technical input and guidance of the Senior Asset Surveyor.
• Develop your own knowledge and experience across a wide range of assets and operational environments.

Qualifications

• Previous surveying experience within construction, the built environment or a related technical discipline.
• Experience of asset surveys, inspections, tagging, audits, data collection or asset management is highly beneficial.
• Excellent attention to detail, good literacy and numeracy skills.
• Confidence using digital tools, spreadsheets, mobile devices or survey data capture systems.
• Ability to identify inconsistencies and accurately record information.
• Practical, reliable and comfortable working outdoors and across live operational sites.
• Confident travelling extensively, working as part of a small team and following established processes and safety requirements.
• Previous Defence or DIO experience is advantageous but not essential.
• BPSS clearance is required as a minimum, with additional clearance potentially required for specific sites or customer environments.

Benefits

• Opportunity for career development.
• Travel to new locations.
• Contribute to an important programme across the UK Defence estate.
