Full job description

WHO WE ARE

Watson & Barnard is a land surveying and geomatics engineering firm based in Delta, B.C. The firm has served the Lower Mainland since 1971 and today employs roughly twenty staff across professional, technical, field, and administrative roles.

Our work spans cadastral and engineering surveys, topographic and construction survey, RPAS-based mapping, control networks, and coastal and foreshore work. Clients include private landowners, developers, contractors, infrastructure firms, municipal, provincial and federal agencies, and First Nations communities — several of whom we have worked with continuously since the 1980s.

WHAT WE DO

Legal (cadastral) surveys — subdivisions, air space parcels, strata, rights-of-way, and easements
Construction layout and engineering surveys
Topographic surveys for design, permitting, and special projects
Deformation and monitoring surveys
Higher-order control networks
Aerial mapping and spatial data processing
Coastal and foreshore surveys

Field crews run Leica GNSS, robotic total stations, digital levels, scanning instruments, and RPAS. Office work is done in AutoCAD, Civil 3D, MicroSurvey Infinity, and Agisoft.

THE ROLE

This is an experienced field position. You will run a small crew, operate instruments independently, and be trusted to make reliable decisions on site.

This role suits someone with several years in the field who is ready to be the person the crew relies on, and who wants to keep developing on the legal and computational side of the work.

WHAT YOU WILL DO

Operate GNSS receivers, robotic total stations, and digital levels independently
Run a crew of one, directing an assistant and managing the day's work on site
Carry out cadastral fieldwork — monument search, recovery, and condition assessment
Interpret legal plans, field notes, and site drawings to locate and verify evidence
Apply the firm's operational procedures for all survey activities
Perform construction layout and verification, and topographic survey
Complete field computations and checks, and identify discrepancies before leaving site
Maintain field notes and documentation to the firm's QA/QC standard
Export, upload, and file field data following the end-of-day procedure
Coordinate with Party Chiefs, Project Managers, and CAD staff on project tasks
Care for, calibrate, and check assigned survey equipment
Support and mentor Assistant Survey Technicians on the crew

WHAT WE ARE LOOKING FOR

Diploma or certificate in geomatics, surveying technology, or a related discipline
Three or more years of field survey experience
Demonstrated independent operation of GNSS and robotic total stations
Ability to read and interpret legal survey plans and cadastral records
Understanding of survey evidence, monumentation, and the significance of a not-found search
Sound field computation and problem-solving ability
A valid B.C. driver's licence and a clean driving record
Physical ability to work outdoors, on foot, in all weather and on uneven ground

An asset:

Experience with MicroSurvey Infinity, Leica Captivate, AutoCAD, or Civil 3D
RPAS certification, or scanning and point-cloud experience
Progress toward LST or professional registration

WHAT WE OFFER

Overtime compensation — overtime hours are regularly available
Performance bonus program
Extended health and dental benefits
Extended office closure over Christmas and some major holidays
Field vehicles provided for travel to job sites
A defined advancement path to Senior Field Survey Technician and beyond
Support for continuing education, and for LST or professional registration if that is your goal

Job Types: Full-time, Permanent

Pay: $25.00-$38.00 per hour

Benefits:

Casual dress
Company car
Company events
Dental care
Disability insurance
Extended health care
Flexible schedule
Life insurance

Tuition reimbursement
