RWE Renewables is a major player in the offshore wind industry, with development interests in the UK and across core markets in Europe, the Americas and in the Asia-Pacific region.

About the role:

1. Working with a committed and motivated team, you will be mentored by experienced geoscientists and hydrographic surveyors to expand your knowledge in a professional setting.
2. You will be involved in supporting the development and continuous improvement of work scopes for desktop studies, onshore and offshore geophysical surveys, and ground models.
3. Participation in review of technical documents from our contractors, including tenders, technical reports, and geophysical and hydrographic datasets.
4. You will communicate survey results and ground conditions information to our internal and external stakeholders, ensuring high levels of quality and accuracy are maintained.
5. Working across the global RWE portfolio of offshore wind farms, you will support all stages of site development from site selection, engineering, construction, operations and maintenance, and eventually life extension and decommissioning works.
6. Interacting daily with the wider cross-discipline teams, you will have opportunities to learn and develop your wider skills regarding oceanography, geotechnical engineering, civil engineering and consents.

Job requirements and experience:

1. A Master's degree (or equivalent) in a relevant geoscience discipline, or a Bachelor's degree (minimum level 2:1) and accomplishment of the RWE Graduate Scheme.
2. Willingness to work as part of a dynamic team with proficient communication skills (both oral and written), and the ability to interact, connect and collaborate across cross-cultural and international teams, with attentiveness and understanding supporting diversity and inclusion.
3. Advanced reasoning and analytical skills, with a problem-solving and forward-thinking mindset.
4. Knowledge and understanding of a range of disciplines including geophysics, geology, geography, engineering geology, hydrography, oceanography, energy transition, geo-data science and environmental geoscience.
5. Experience in the integration of geophysical datasets, preparing and analysing scientific data appropriately, and preparing written reports and giving oral presentations.
6. Familiarity with geophysical data collected in the marine and coastal environments, this might include systems such as single beam and multibeam echo sounder, sidescan sonar, magnetometer, gradiometer, sub-bottom profiler, or 2D/3D UHR seismic data, and experience interpreting the resulting datasets.
7. Appreciation and high regard for health and safety in all aspects of your work as well as consideration for the environment.
8. Flexibility, with the capacity to manage independently and operate on your own when necessary.
9. Skill in the use of Microsoft Office Suite is essential.

Advantageous, but not essential:

1. Familiarity with any specialist industry standard software such as ArcGIS, SonarWiz, Oasis Montaj, S&P Kingdom.
2. Good understanding or direct experience of ground models and the integration of geophysical data with geotechnical or other ground-truthed datasets.
3. Experience in programming languages such as Python used in an engineering or geoscience context.
4. Flexibility to work some time "out of hours" as part of a wider survey team to provide technical support to live (24-hour) survey projects would also be desirable. This is done on a rotating basis and is normally related to covering daily calls (15 minutes) at the weekend and can be as little as once a month.
