• Pioneer R&D Initiatives: Work closely with the Laboratory Manager on Research & Development projects, exploring alternative materials, carbon-footprint reduction in concrete, and innovative chemical admixtures.

• Innovate Mix Designs: Assist with advanced concrete mix design, sampling, and compliance testing to optimise strength and durability.

• Precision Testing: Carry out laboratory and field tests on construction materials (concrete, aggregates, soils, asphalt, etc.) in line with international standards.

• Data Analysis & Reporting: Record, analyse, and interpret complex test results, preparing technical reports that influence site-wide decisions.

• Site Support & Investigation: Support site teams with material approvals, troubleshooting, and forensic investigations into material performance.

• Standard Excellence: Ensure laboratory equipment is properly maintained and calibrated, while contributing to the continuous improvement of testing procedures.

What We are Looking For

• Bachelor’s degree in Engineering (Civil, Materials, Geotechnical, or a related field).

• An inquisitive mind with a strong interest in R&D and materials science.

• Strong analytical skills and a meticulous eye for detail.

• The ability to translate laboratory data into practical engineering solutions.

• Good communication skills and a "hands-on" attitude.

• Fresh graduates with a desire to innovate are highly encouraged to apply.

Why Join GCC?

• R&D Exposure: Be part of a team that is actively researching the future of Mauritian construction materials.

• Mentorship: Learn from experienced professionals in a supportive and collaborative environment.

• Real Impact: Work on large-scale projects that shape the infrastructure of our country.

• Career Foundation: Build a solid foundation for a long-term, high-level career in engineering and quality management.
