We're looking for someone with advanced proficiency in Revit and Navisworks, strong knowledge of ISO 19650 and industry BIM standards, and experience coordinating multidisciplinary models within major infrastructure environments. If you're passionate about BIM, VDC and digital coordination, this is an opportunity to make a real impact on one of Canberra's most significant infrastructure projects.

The project is being undertaken through a joint venture between Seymour Whyte and VINCI Construction Grands Projets, alongside design partner Beca HunterH2O, bringing together expertise in large-scale water and civil infrastructure delivery.

The project involves upgrading and expanding the existing wastewater treatment facility to improve treatment efficiency, increase plant capacity, and support Canberra’s growing population. Key works include the construction of a new membrane bioreactor capable of treating up to 97 megalitres of wastewater per day, along with upgrades to critical treatment systems across the plant. Sustainability is also a key focus, with initiatives including renewable energy use, recycled water during construction, and the reuse of on‑site materials where possible.

• Experience supporting project delivery through BIM, VDC and Digital Engineering methodologies across civil infrastructure projects
• Experience working within Common Data Environments such as Autodesk Forma, Bentley ProjectWise, Synergy or similar platforms desirable
• Excellent communication and stakeholder engagement skills, with the ability to facilitate coordination workshops and influence project teams
• A collaborative approach, strong attention to detail and the ability to manage competing priorities in a fast‑paced project environment
