Your impact

Jacobs’ ANZ Survey and Reality Capture business provides access to the latest equipment, software, and best-practice processes to deliver high-quality surveying services, solutions, and advice. We work on major infrastructure projects across Transport, Resources, Water, Power and Energy, and the Built Environment.

We are currently seeking an experienced Land Surveyor to join our Central and Western Data Capture team. This is a valued role based primarily in Perth (WA) , with opportunities to support our broader Australia and New Zealand (ANZ) business.
