Senior/Principal Hydrogeologist

Redefine your personal best.

We have an exciting opportunity for a Senior or Principal Hydrogeologist to join our Minerals and Mining Team. We have offices across the country and work in a hybrid manner across our geographically dispersed hydrogeology team.

The role requires the delivery of high quality, pragmatic, advice, and solutions to environmental problems primarily in the quarrying and mining sector. There is also the opportunity to work across other projects including water resources, catchment management, land development, waste, and flood risk.

The role offers great and varied career development opportunities, including people leadership, technical leadership, and business development leadership.

The friendly and collaborative culture at Stantec is something we are proud of, and we have many other reasons for you to be excited about joining us. We can offer a competitive salary and benefits package, agile and flexible working arrangements, industry-leading training, great projects, and lots more!

About You

You will ideally have a postgraduate qualification in Hydrogeology or a related scientific discipline, and be chartered or working towards chartership with a relevant professional body.

We're seeking a highly skilled hydrogeologist with a deep understanding of subsurface systems and processes. You'll excel at translating complex technical concepts into clear and concise reports.

Beyond technical expertise, you will bring strong project management experience, having led projects of various sizes to successful completion. While a background in the minerals or mining sector is a plus, it's not essential. However, an understanding of relevant areas like impact assessment, flood risk, and environmental data management is highly desirable.

A collaborative spirit and a thirst for continuous learning are crucial. You'll thrive in a structured environment that supports your career development. Bonus points if you have experience with business development!

If you're a passionate hydrogeologist, but other factors are making you hesitant to apply, we would still love to hear from you and would work with you to overcome any challenges.
