A professional Land Surveyor is a sought after position and attracts people from differing walks of life. School leavers, A-Level and degree students, as well as professionals without qualifications but proven experience can hope to become a Land Surveyor – but choosing the right company to work for is vital. The role of a Land Surveyor involves using instrumentation to measure the shape and level of the land, gathering a wide range of data. This includes both man-made and natural elements and is used for civil engineering and construction projects. Information gathered by Land Surveyors is crucial in the early stages of any project or development. Whether you work for a small local surveying company, or a large multinational organisation, becoming a Land Surveyor affords many benefits, notably travel opportunities and the chance to have a positive impact on the environment. No two days as a Land Surveyor are ever the same and you may find yourself in a range of locations; for example working on roads and bridges one day, then gathering data for power and water supply networks the next. To become a Land Surveyor you will normally need a degree accredited by the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors (RICS). Degrees in Surveying, as well as Geomatics, Civil Engineering and Geographical Information Science are the perfect route to a Land Surveying degree, however not always essential. There is an opportunity to become a Land Surveyor without a degree-level qualification, as you can apply for a RICS professional assessment based on your qualifications and experience. Additional skills to become a Land Surveyor include strong team working, problem solving, maths and IT competency. Courses to become a Land Surveyor are available in many shapes and sizes to suit your learning requirements, including full degree and distance learning options. Depending on your circumstances, training to become a Land Surveyor can typically take 2 years. The flexibility of a Land Surveying degree attracts many people, as it can lead to various roles and career progression; from assistant and lead surveyor positions, through to business management, valuation and even law.
