Auckland City, New Zealand CMW Geosciences Full time

**About Us**

Since starting in Perth in 2012, CMW Geosciences has expanded to 18 offices with 300 employees across Australia and New Zealand. We are hard-working, down-to-earth, and passionate engineers and geologists who provide quality geotechnical site investigation, analysis, and design advice to the construction infrastructure and energy sectors.

As a graduate at CMW Geosciences, you'll be treated like an industry professional from the get-go. After completing the necessary training and inductions, you'll go out in the field to learn the practical field skills that form the basis of the technical work we do. You'll have access to senior technical staff to guide you through the early stages of your career and fast-track your growth. You'll be exposed to the full project lifecycle, to start to prepare you for career from day one. Unlike larger organizations, you won't be siloed into one stream of the business or handed low-responsibility tasks for the first year. You'll be learning technical, practical and project related skills and within 2-4 years, we expect you'll be able to manage and run projects from start to finish.

Our graduate program for 2024/25 has three intakes. July 2024, November 2024 and January 2025. All positions are open now. Below is a complete list.

**A Typical Day**

CMW Geosciences graduates fulfill our field-based roles. A typical day would include going to site to complete manual field work tasks and testing. Onsite testing might include logging rock and soil bore holes, undertaking hand augers or observing machine excavated test pits. On our construction sites you would be observing piling, retaining walls or ground improvement sites.

If you're in the office, you would likely be processing logs and soil samples, writing technical reports and assisting project managers with deliverables.

Our range of projects are diverse across countries and offices: you could be communicating design elements to contractors on a community housing development in Rotorua. Or, be in regional Queensland at the MacIntyre Windfarm, carrying piling supervision and providing construction phase support. Or, across the country in Perth at Jandakot Airport undertaking CPT testing, dynamic cone penetrations testing, infiltration testing and hand auger boring.

**What You'll Need**
- A Civil Engineering, Geology or Earth Science Degree
- Ability to complete strenuous field work tasks
- Ability to travel when required
- A full New Zealand or Australian drivers license
- A desire to work outside with a love of rocks, soil and geology
- Good interpersonal skills
- Exceptional organisation and communication skills, both verbal and written

- Mid-winter Christmas party
- Weekly fruit box and morning teas
