We have an exciting opportunity for an enthusiastic and resourceful graduate to embark on a career in a fast growing field.

Energyline Ltd is a leading integrated consultancy, survey, and investigation service for the electricity networks systems industry based in Copgrove.

A small but rapidly advancing GIS (Geographic Information Systems) department has an opportunity for a GIS Technician to support the GIS department Lead with map creation, management of mapping systems and data handling.

We are looking for an inquisitive and ambitious individual with a keen interest in geography, data, maps, and IT. Perhaps you’re intrigued by large projects that directly benefit the world such as our collaborations with SSE which are successfully increasing the distribution of renewable energy across Scotland, helping the country reach its Net Zero target by 2050.

This is a rare opportunity to kick-start a career in not only a highly sought after industry, but also an exceptionally prosperous profession with well-known successful career paths. You will be given the tools, guidance, and resources to develop and hone your practical skills, but you will also have the scope to investigate your own ideas, and will be encouraged to share your own solutions and collaborate.

You will be required to create integral and informative mapping and data outputs for different departments, including: Design, Survey (including Drones), Cable Engineering, Geotechnical Engineering, and Planning and Environmental. This position is multifaceted, and is a perfect opportunity to develop GIS skills in a wide range of different disciplines.

Due to the nature of this position, there is a chance you may be required to carry out site work as part of a team, which may involve short periods away from home.

This is an entry level opportunity. Although desirable, no previous experience is required and would suit a recent graduate with a basic understanding and interest in GIS.

The role:
Reporting to the GIS Department Lead, you will be responsible for map creation, reporting support, and data handling.

Key responsibilities:

- Supporting the department lead in organising, controlling and managing all GIS data
- Providing GIS drawing support to different departments with ArcGIS Pro
- Giving technical and organisational support to the department lead for Energyline’s online GIS platform for web and mobile mapping applications
- Creating, editing, and formatting spatial information
- Undertaking mapping requests from across the business
- Sourcing and preparing data to prepare graphics, metrics and standardised maps in order to help non-GIS users understand the data we are presenting
- Maintaining and updating datasets for use internally and externally
- Buying maps and sourcing third party data
