About Us
Since starting in Perth in 2012, CMW Geosciences has expanded to 22 offices with 300 employees across Australia and New Zealand. We are hard-working, down-to-earth, and passionate engineers and geologists who provide quality geotechnical site investigation, analysis, and design advice to the construction, infrastructure and energy sectors.
A Typical Day
CMW Geosciences graduates fulfill our field-based roles. A typical day would include going to site to complete manual field work tasks and testing.

If you're in the office, you would likely be processing logs and soil samples, writing technical reports and assisting project managers with deliverables. Our range of projects are diverse across countries and offices: you could be communicating design elements to contractors on a community housing development in Rotorua, or in regional Queensland at the MacIntyre Windfarm, carrying piling supervision and providing construction phase support, or in Perth at Jandakot Airport undertaking CPT testing, dynamic cone penetrations testing, infiltration testing and hand auger boring.
