Project Information
ACCIONA is delivering a transmission project, and its teams rely on accurate spatial data to plan, build and hand over.

You will also feed spatial inputs into monthly reporting and prepare data for asset handover. The role gives you a view of a transmission project across every discipline and from planning through to handover.
Key accountabilities for the position will be:
- Manage project GIS datasets, keeping data accurate, consistent and version controlled
- Produce maps and spatial analysis for project teams and stakeholder engagement
- Support landholder liaison and property access planning with spatial mapping
- Align GIS data with project information systems and the common data environment
- Identify spatial risks and support compliance with approvals and environmental conditions
- Contribute GIS inputs to monthly reports, audits and asset handover
