We are seeking an enthusiastic and motivated Geoscience Apprentice to join the AECOM Site Survey & Investigation Specialist (ASSIST) team in Nottingham.

As an apprentice, you'll develop hands-on skills across a wide range of geoscience, geotechnical, and rail-related survey projects that support safe, sustainable, and resilient infrastructure across the UK. You'll work alongside geologists, geophysicists, surveyors, and engineers, gaining experience from data collection through to interpretation and reporting.

Our team plays a vital role in assessing ground conditions, supporting design decisions, and enabling projects to be delivered efficiently and safely. You'll be part of a collaborative and innovative environment where your work contributes directly to the development and maintenance of critical national infrastructure assets.

As an apprentice, you will:

• Support ground investigations and geoscience surveys, including collecting geological, geophysical, and geotechnical data.
• Assist in interpreting data to understand ground conditions and identify potential geohazards.
• Learn to use field equipment and digital tools for mapping, modelling, and analysis.
• Help prepare technical reports, drawings, and documentation for both internal teams and clients.
• Participate in site visits, inspections, and data-gathering activities across various site locations.
• Work collaboratively with survey and engineering disciplines to support integrated project delivery.
• Contribute to sustainability and safety initiatives throughout project lifecycles.
• Work towards academic and professional development through the Keele University Geoscientist Degree Apprenticeship, leading to recognised professional accreditation.

• A minimum of 5 GCSEs (or equivalent) at grade C/4 or above, including Maths, English, and a science subject.
• Three A-Levels (or equivalent) at grade B or above, preferably including a science subject such as Geology, Geography, Physics, Chemistry, or Maths (required for Level 6 Degree Apprenticeship).
• A genuine interest in geology, earth sciences, infrastructure, or site survey/investigation work.
• Some experience, work shadowing, or exposure to fieldwork, environmental, or construction settings (preferred).
• An interest in digital tools, mapping software, or data analysis techniques.
• Strong attention to detail, organisation, and communication skills.
• A practical, curious, and problem-solving mindset.
• Ability to work well both independently and as part of a multidisciplinary team.
• A full UK driving licence (for manual vehicles).
