Surveyor – Monitoring (Construction Projects)

About the role

The Surveyor (Monitoring) will conduct field surveys and monitoring activities to track settlement, deformation, and structural behavior of project assets and surrounding infrastructure. Working on‑site in Riyadh, you will support the safety and integrity of structures throughout construction and operational phases.

Key responsibilities

• Perform daily monitoring surveys, measuring settlement, displacement, movement and deformation.
• Conduct precise leveling surveys and install, inspect and maintain monitoring targets, benchmarks, prisms and reference points.
• Operate and maintain survey equipment such as robotic total stations, digital levels, GNSS/GPS receivers, crack gauges, tiltmeters and inclinometers.
• Collect, verify and upload monitoring data, maintain logs and report any discrepancies or equipment issues.
• Support Survey Engineers in establishing control networks and assist with automated monitoring system checks.
• Participate in emergency monitoring when movement thresholds are exceeded and ensure compliance with QA/QC, health, safety and environmental regulations.

Required profile

• Diploma or Technical Certificate in Surveying, Geomatics, Civil Engineering or related field (Bachelor’s degree a plus).
• 3‑5 years of experience in surveying and monitoring, preferably on metro, railway, tunnelling or large infrastructure projects.
• Experience with settlement and deformation monitoring programs is highly desirable.

Required skills

• Operation of Total Stations, Digital Levels and GNSS/GPS equipment.
• Use of Precise Levels, Monitoring Prisms, Crack Gauges, Tiltmeters and Inclinometers.
• Knowledge of construction surveying and monitoring principles.
