Have you successfully completed a GIS degree or masters course? Do you have analytical ability, strong visual sense and a client service ethos? We’re a small but fast-moving GIS company with a vacancy for a qualified GIS analyst to create maps and data layers, manage and analyse spatial data and deliver under pressure on varied client requirements.
No two tasks are the same, and there’s always scope to think laterally, add value, help build client relationships and contribute to the success of a close-knit, committed and informal team. On-job training and mentoring will be given, but you must be technically adept, a fast learner and eager to build and use new skills.

We work across a range of technologies and pride ourselves on creating innovative business tools delivering the best of GI science.
We’re looking for someone who must have:
- a qualification to degree or Masters level in GIS
- some relevant work experience
- proven delivery strengths
- good working knowledge of databases
- confidence using popular illustrator packages to create visuals
- the ability to present visuals attractively
- competency in thinking through and solving problems independently
- efficient workflow management
- clear and accurate communication skills, both verbal and in writing
- proven teamwork skills
The position is available immediately. Based centrally in the beautiful city of Bath (12 mins walk Bath Spa station), our offices are informal and close to bars, shops etc. We work according to a comprehensive sustainability commitment.
If you think your ambition and this position might match, please submit a CV and an example of a map-based visualisation you have created, accompanied by some brief notes on the challenges this task presented and how you approached it (links to online materials are fine). Send these to: Ruth Keily, Director, Geofutures Ltd at [log in to unmask] by 18 June 2010.
