George Alexiev began their professional career in 1988 as a Geodetic Engineer and Research Associate for Geoprotection Ltd, where they were responsible for precise 3D monitoring of surface deformations of landslides and hydrological facilities by surveying and photogrammetric methods. In 1992, they moved to Siwinski Land Surveyors as a Graduate Surveyor, where they were a field party leader and was responsible for relocation of boundary monuments for subdivision, consolidation of urban lots, farms, detail and contour surveys, and setting-out buildings and roads.

In 1994, they became a Registered Land Surveyor at Van Zijl, Knootze & Beek in Johannesburg, RSA, where they were responsible for cadastral surveys, farm and urban boundary definition, gas pipelines set-out, easements, as-built surveys, office duties, coordinate calculations, adjustments, and cadastral data datum transformations. In 1996, they moved to ATS in Sydney, Australia, as a Surveyor, where they were responsible for automated field data acquisition for detail and contour mapping, volumetric, excavation, drainage surveys, flood prevention, high-rise building survey layout, and CAD drafting. In 1997, they joined P.W. Rygate & Co (Est.1897) in Sydney, Australia, as a Graduate Surveyor/Crew Chief, where they were responsible for survey party leadership and precision structural deformation monitoring, engineering, set-out, detail and boundary surveys.
