The training provided will include courses and on the job training, delivered by experienced surveyors within your first 12 months in the role. In addition, a competitive package which includes flexible working patterns and attractive remuneration, and ongoing support to develop a rewarding career that makes a difference and saves lives.
Some of the typical responsibilities could include, but are not limited to:
- Examining and assessing intact and damage stability information for ships to ensure that they meet UK, and international safety, and anti-pollution regulations, where qualified and eligible to do so.
- Examining and assessing vessel construction plans and structural information for compliance with the requirements of MCA construction standards, where qualified and eligible to do so.
- Contributing to the provision and delivery of first-class Statutory Services to both internal and external customers. Working with the Technical Manager, Principal Marine Surveyor (Stability & Plan Approval), and Business Manager to provide a customer service experience that both meets and manages expectations; helping to deliver a regulatory climate that is clear, consistent and supportive of UK maritime industries.
