Survey Manager (Construction & Infrastructure)

Based out of our Perth or Bunbury office, this exciting opportunity is not a typical Survey Manager role; it is a pivotal position within Noble Surveys, accountable for delivering secured projects with a strong focus on quality, performance, and commercial outcomes.

At Noble Surveys, this position is responsible for turning secured work into profitable, high-quality project delivery. You will lead survey operations across multiple projects, ensuring work is delivered on time, within budget, and to a high technical standard.

You will take ownership from project handover through to completion, managing Senior Surveyors, coordinating resources, and driving performance across field and office teams.

This position will require travel for project work across Western Australia when required, including our Bunbury Office or Perth office depending on which office you will be based from, with flexibility to support a range of construction and infrastructure projects.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Lead and manage a team of Senior Surveyors across multiple active projects
• Own delivery performance including productivity, quality, and profitability
• Plan and program survey resources to meet project timelines
• Review field data, calculations, and deliverables for accuracy and compliance
• Reduce rework and improve overall project efficiency
• Provide technical support across processing, data management, and problem solving
• Coordinate with Project Managers and clients at an operational level
• Monitor output, performance, and billable efficiency across projects
• Mentor and develop team members to improve capability and consistency

What We’re Looking For

• 7+ years experience in surveying, with previous Survey Manager experience essential
• Strong background in civil, infrastructure, or construction projects
• Proven ability to manage teams and deliver projects commercially
• High-level technical capability across survey workflows, data processing, and QA
• Strong leadership skills with a focus on mentoring and developing people
• Experience with Trimble equipment, GNSS, total stations (essential)
• Experience with Civil3D, TBC, or equivalent software (advantageous)
• Exposure to machine control, UAV, or laser scanning (desirable)

What Sets This Role Apart

• Clear focus on delivery performance, not just coordination
• Direct impact on profitability, efficiency, and project outcomes
• Strong pipeline of work across construction, infrastructure, and mining
• Opportunity to shape systems, standards, and team performance
• Mix of office, technical, and operational leadership work

Key Outcomes

• Strengthening project predictability through accurate forecasting and proactive management to improve delivery efficiency and reduce rework
• Maintain strong client relationships to support consistent delivery outcomes and repeat business
• Achieve high levels of on-time project completion
• Lift team capability and consistency across projects
• Maintain strong technical and data quality standards
• Foster and lead a positive, high-performing team culture that promotes collaboration, accountability, and pride in work.
