For 5 weeks I was part of a five-man team completing geophysical surveys along 250km of new railway in the UAE. I was solely managing one aspect of the survey which required careful time, project, and data management to ensure efficient and excellent data collection within a tight deadline. When needed, I also completed routine maintenance to the hardware used for the data collection in the harsh desert environment.• Southport Seismic Refraction Survey, May 2019. I had lead responsibility from survey design through to delivering the results to the client. I lead a four-man team for one week of site works to complete 2km of seismic surveys to create a 3D map of the geology. Following the site works, I lead the processing and creation of interpreted map deliverables and technical reports. The client gave exceptionally good feedback to my line manager highlighting the delivery of the project on time and within budget.• In April 2018 I was promoted from ‘Graduate Geophysicist’ to ‘Geophysicist’.
