Setting Out Engineer

Location: Mobile role covering Surrey, Sussex and Kent

RGsetsquare recruitment is working with FM and Construction Companies who are responsible for managing a mixture of reactive and planned maintenance contracts across UK.

Rate: £200 per day (Umb)
Duration: 4-5 Months

Main Purpose of Job

Undertake consistent site-by-site surveys across operational sites, using setting-out and reality-capture methods to record buildings, structures, enclosures, routes, tanks, access constraints and relevant plant for fire evacuation, point-cloud and modelling outputs.

Junior/mid-level field role focused on safe capture, clear records and complete handover packs for the BIM / delivery team.

Main Duties & Responsibilities

• Attend sites to the weekly lookahead, RAMS, permits and site controls.
• Survey occupiable buildings, kiosks, enclosures, major structures, external routes, evacuation routes, tanks, plant interfaces and scoped operational areas.
• Use the agreed survey kit: Scanners, SLAM, total station/GPS, measuring tools, 360 camera and/or tablet.
• Record control, reference points, levels, building positions and orientation for modelling reuse as practicable.
• Capture sites thoroughly, focusing on exits, stairs, doors, gates, routes, constraints and level changes.
• Record site name, CAFM, what3words, building refs, contacts, access notes and survey gaps.
• Complete survey forms, checklists, photo logs and daily notes, including exclusions, safety limits, weather and abortive time.
• Escalate blockers fast: unsafe access, confined spaces, locks, hazards, missing escorts, weather, traffic, readiness / scope gaps.
• Control data: name files, separate folders, back up capture data and upload to ACC or the nominated location.
• Handover complete site packs: scans, photos, notes, forms, sketches and exceptions.
• Maintain equipment: charge, transport safely, complete checks and report faults or damage.
• Follow company H&S, rules, RAMS, lone-working, manual-handling and operational procedures.
• Clarify site conditions for BIM/modelling, without owning modelling, BIM audits or design.
• Carry out other reasonable delivery duties aligned to the role.

Key Skills & Competencies

• Junior/mid setting-out, site engineering, land survey or utility survey experience; water/wastewater, civils, industrial or FM sites desirable.
• Some practical survey knowledge: measurement, levels, control, coordinates, georeferencing, sketches, mark-ups, photos and evidence records.
• Strong familiarity with total station, GPS/GNSS, laser scanning, SLAM or similar digital survey equipment.
• Able to follow a repeatable checklist and capture consistent information across multiple sites.
• Good hazard awareness: traffic, tanks, chambers, uneven ground, plant, restricted access and water/wastewater environments.
• Detail-focused.
• Clear communicator with site teams, client contacts and internal delivery managers.
• Able to work independently, and stop or escalate when safety or scope is unclear.
• Organised, with good time control across short-cycle site surveys.
• Full UK driving licence; willing to travel across the region.
