We are currently looking for a Geo Information Specialist to join our Geo team based in Bishopbriggs, near Glasgow.

It is the team's responsibility to monitor and research global change, and use that information to edit our GIS databases. Alongside other team members, your role will be to ensure these databases are kept up to date. You will ensure the required standards of accuracy and authority at all times.

You are likely to have studied geography or cartographer and have a keen interest in global geography and geopolitics. You will be at home in a ‘digital’ environment, and have some experience using GIS software, particularly ArcGIS or QGIS. You will be able to perform effectively as part of a small team, have an enquiring mind, excellent organisational skills, a keen eye for detail and a real passion for maintaining the quality and accuracy our cartographic products are renowned for.
