About the Opportunity
☑️ Our Cities & Places team in Ireland is growing, and this role offers something special: impact, variety and visibility. You’ll work with one of our key clients in Dublin, establishing and maintaining a GIS capability for their Asset Management team — with the freedom to shape solutions, not just deliver them.
☑️ Beyond the initial project, you’ll have opportunities to plug into other exciting initiatives across Jacobs, expanding your technical depth and sector experience. You’ll collaborate with a talented, multidisciplinary team, backed by our extensive Geospatial community and global Jacobs network.
☑️ Based in central Dublin, this role follows Jacobs’ hybrid approach — combining flexibility with meaningful face to face collaboration. Expect at least three days a week alongside client and Jacobs colleagues, influencing outcomes and building strong, lasting partnerships.
☑️ At Jacobs, we don’t just deliver projects — we create environments where people do their best work, grow their careers and see the positive impact of what they do every day.
This is more than a job — it’s a forward-looking career path. You’ll join a diverse, high-performing team of GIS professionals, from graduates to industry experts, reporting into an experienced and supportive leader.
Here's what you'll need
✅ Strong, hands on experience with Esri GIS solutions in an enterprise environment
✅ Proven success leading and delivering GIS projects in fast paced, client facing settings
✅ Expert level skills in ArcGIS Pro (and ArcMap), with solid data management and QA capability
✅ Demonstrated experience in Web GIS, including building web maps and applications using ArcGIS Enterprise (Portal), ArcGIS Online or similar
✅ A proactive, collaborative mindset and the confidence to act as a trusted technical advisor and mentor
✅ Experience applying GIS within sectors such as asset management, engineering, transportation, planning, water or the environment will set you up for success, but are not essential
🏙️ Jacobs offers hybrid working and a standard 40-hour working week.
