Graduate Geologist role within the Groundwater Department. The position provided exposure to a range of areas including, fieldwork: geothermal involvement, borehole investigations, geophysical surveys, and soil logging field excursions; communication: representing GSI at conferences, responding to public inquiries as well as stakeholder engagement; and involvement with Europe wide GeoERA projects: Hover, HotLime, MUSE, RESOURCE, TACTIC; a combination of looking at the effects of climate change on groundwater, hydrological processes and geological settings, as well as geothermal.
