Job Description
This Surveyor / Assistant Surveyor role is for a construction-focused employer operating across Blackpool FY1 and the wider Fylde Coast. The successful candidate will support site teams with accurate setting out, measurement, and quality checks, helping projects stay on programme and within specification. Quick Placement is managing the vacancy locally, which means we can speak directly with candidates who are already in the area, understand the site environment, and can commit to an immediate start. This is a practical, hands-on opportunity for someone who enjoys being outdoors, working with engineers, groundworkers, and site managers, and contributing to visible local development.
As a trusted recruitment partner for construction and infrastructure vacancies, Quick Placement connects job seekers with employers who value reliability, technical awareness, and safety. We are not simply advertising a generic title; we are looking for a professional who can help maintain standards on site while gaining experience in a supportive environment. If you are searching for Surveyor / Assistant Surveyor jobs in Blackpool FY1, or broader construction jobs in the North West, this placement is a strong route into ongoing work. Our consultants understand temporary staffing, weekly pay, and the importance of a smooth registration process.
The employer is committed to building a dependable site team and recognises that accurate surveying directly affects programme efficiency, material control, and safety. You will be working with professionals who respect proactive communication, clear documentation, and a calm approach to problem solving. This is particularly attractive for candidates who want to progress from assistant-level duties into more independent surveying responsibilities over time. Quick Placement is also a recognised construction staffing agency supporting employers with vetted, site-ready staff, so candidates can apply with confidence knowing the recruitment process is built around safety, compliance, and local market knowledge.
Key Responsibilities
The day-to-day duties will vary depending on the phase of the project, but the core responsibilities of the Surveyor / Assistant Surveyor are clear and practical.
- •Carry out setting out and control surveys using total stations, levels, GNSS, and traditional surveying equipment to support civil engineering and groundworks teams.
- •Assist senior surveyors with site measurements, as-built records, volume calculations, and verification of levels, offsets, and boundaries.
- •Read construction drawings, setting-out plans, and method statements accurately, raising queries before work proceeds to avoid rework.
- •Maintain survey data, field notes, and digital records while ensuring information is shared promptly with project managers and engineers.
- •Support quality assurance by checking tolerances, alignments, and finishes against project specifications and approved design intent.
- •Coordinate with subcontractors, warehouse operatives, courier drivers, and site logistics teams to keep plant, materials, and documentation moving efficiently.
- •Follow health and safety procedures, use PPE correctly, and contribute to toolbox talks and risk assessments on active sites.
- •Help prepare simple reports, sketches, and progress updates for client-facing teams, with training available where appropriate.
What We’re Looking For
We welcome applications from candidates with formal surveying experience, construction-related qualifications, or transferable technical skills. The most important qualities are accuracy, reliability, and a willingness to learn.
- •Proven experience or training as a surveyor, assistant surveyor, trainee surveyor, or construction graduate with site exposure.
- •Ability to read and interpret technical drawings, setting-out information, and levels with good attention to detail.
- •Familiarity with total stations, auto levels, GPS/GNSS, or willingness to learn quickly under supervision.
- •Valid CSCS card or relevant safety passport preferred; employer may support suitable candidates where experience is strong.
- •Good communication skills and confidence working alongside engineers, site managers, subcontractors, and logistics teams.
- •Reliable transport or ability to reach Blackpool FY1 sites consistently for an immediate start.
- •Positive attitude, safety awareness, and a practical approach to problem solving on busy construction environments.
- •Basic IT literacy, including familiarity with Microsoft Office, CAD viewers, or surveying software.
A Typical Day on Site
A typical day may begin with a short team briefing, followed by checking the latest drawings, setting-out points, and site conditions. You may spend part of the morning confirming levels for groundworks, foundations, drainage runs, or boundary lines, then update digital records in the afternoon. There may also be liaison with engineers, subcontractors, or site logistics teams, including Warehouse Operative staff handling materials and Courier Driver personnel delivering documentation or components. The role rewards people who stay organised, communicate clearly, and understand that precise surveying helps prevent costly errors. For candidates who enjoy varied outdoor work, problem solving, and visible progress, this is a highly practical position.
Salary and Benefits
The advertised pay rate is competitive and based on experience. Quick Placement works with employers who value fair pay, reliable attendance, and professional standards. This is a temporary placement with the possibility of becoming permanent for the right candidate. Benefits include weekly pay, a straightforward registration process, access to ongoing construction and site-based roles, and support from a consultant who understands the local market.
