Technical Director - Hydrogeological Services

An excellent opportunity has arisen for an experienced Hydrogeologist to join an established environmental consultancy in Warwickshire.

This is a very much hands-on role and you will be a key member within the company and be expected to play a proactive role in company performance, management and the development of new business opportunities. You will also assist to provide project direction and manage and support consultants in your team.
