Job description

Over 10 years we help companies reach their financial and branding goals. Engitech is a values-driven technology agency dedicated.

We are seeking a skilled Assistant BIM Technician to support the delivery of high-quality BIM models and digital information across a range of major infrastructure projects in the UK and internationally, including HS2 and other clean energy and transportation projects both client, design and contractor side. You will work closely with Engineers, Designers, Construction Teams and BIM Managers to produce coordinated, compliant models and drawings in line with project and client requirements.

This role is ideal for someone with strong technical modelling skills who is detail-oriented, collaborative, and keen to develop their career within a BIM-led environment. An engineering mind is essential, as we are looking for those that look beyond tracing from a marked up drawing, they will look to understand the content that they are producing, and have the confidence to question the integrity, should they feel that things could be done in a different way.

A keen interest in emerging tools and technology, including AI is something that will help you get the best output and most efficiency. We want all of our Technicians to feel supported in their development into their next role so are supported well by our Principal Technicians and Engineers.

Frequent interaction with multiple team members, both internal and external is expected. We don’t expect you to sit and wait for answers, you will be integral to finding solutions.

An appreciation for Project Management, programming and cost will be taught and we want you to understand how the SME is operating and growing.

We are an NCE award winning engineering consultancy with sharp focus on structured information delivery. Initiative and proactive delivery is an expectation. We have the accreditations to match major multinational design consultancies and contractors, but the agility of an SME that can make impactful decisions quickly, which our clients value us for.
