Travel around the world to carry out inspections; lots of paperwork

With the work ethic of a true Mariner, a surveyor has settled on land to become a protector of sailors. Only after seeing first-hand the dangers of seafaring can a surveyor be on the look out for problems they must solve. Entire crews and fleets depend on this person to scout ahead when no one else can, crawling through machinery covered in oil cataloguing equipment, inspecting the hull of a ship so massive it blocks out the sun.

This job is truly varied as your duties include investigating anything onboard a ship that may need closer attention. You are a unique and prized commodity to mariners and merchants everywhere because of your ability to find problems that no one else can.
