Survey Party Chief
Spotlock
We are expanding our surveying team and are seeking a skilled Survey Party Chief to support our growing workload throughout New Jersey, New York, and the broader tri-state region. Our firm provides comprehensive land development and surveying services, and this role is a key part of strengthening our field operations as we continue to scale.
This is an excellent opportunity for someone who already knows how to lead a survey crew, enjoys hands-on fieldwork, and wants a long-term home with opportunities for career advancement and licensure.
About the Role
We are currently experiencing an increase in project volume and are building a more regionalized field team to better serve our clients. As a Survey Party Chief, you will independently run survey operations in the field, support a wide range of land development and construction projects, and work with modern Trimble equipment.
This position is primarily field-based and remote, with limited need to report to the office. We provide a company credit card for gas, tolls, lodging, and related expenses.
Key Responsibilities
- Lead and manage field survey operations with minimal oversight
- Perform boundary surveys, topographic surveys, ALTA/NSPS land title surveys, and construction stakeout
- Operate Trimble S5 robotic total stations, GPS/RTK systems, and data collectors
- Interpret plans, perform field calculations, and solve problems on-site
- Produce accurate field notes, sketches, and digital records
- Coordinate directly with office staff and Project Managers regarding project requirements
- Maintain and care for all assigned survey equipment
- Uphold safety procedures and represent the company professionally on all job sites
Travel & Territory
- Primary work in New Jersey and New York
- Occasional travel within the broader tri-state region
- Rare overnight travel to locations such as Rochester, Buffalo, Syracuse, or Virginia — scheduled in advance with consideration for personal and family needs
- Variety of project durations, ranging from half-day visits to multi-day assignments
- Candidates located in Central NJ (Burlington, Ocean, Monmouth Counties) are especially encouraged, as this helps us better regionalize our field coverage.
What We’re Looking For
Required
- Prior experience as a Survey Party Chief or Crew Chief
- Strong capability with construction stakeout, boundary, and topo surveys
- Experience with GPS/RTK and robotic total station workflows
- Ability to work independently, manage time effectively, and communicate clearly
- High level of responsibility and professionalism — especially when working remotely
- Valid driver’s license and comfort with multi-location travel
Preferred
- Experience with Trimble S5 instruments
- Familiarity with land development projects
- Interest in advancing toward professional licensure
- Ability to mentor and support junior team members
What We Offer
- Competitive compensation
- Company credit card for field expenses (gas, tolls, lodging, etc.)
- Health, dental, and vision benefits
- 401(k) with company contribution
- Paid time off and paid holidays
- Modern equipment and efficient workflows
- Opportunities for long-term growth and advancement
- A supportive team culture that values initiative, reliability, and continuous improvement
