Job description

What’s the Opportunity

Join our dynamic Digital Engineering team as a BIM Coordinator / Manager, where you'll play a pivotal role in driving the implementation and delivery of Building Information Modelling across a diverse portfolio of high-profile projects. You'll collaborate closely with multidisciplinary teams to ensure digital workflows are integrated seamlessly, supporting design excellence and project efficiency. This role offers the opportunity to lead innovation in digital construction, contribute to strategic development of BIM standards, and work within a forward-thinking environment that values technical expertise, collaboration, and continuous improvement.

We operate an agile working policy, but please note this opportunity will require weekly attendance at a major project site on the outskirts of Oxford. We therefore will consider applicants within proximity to other regional offices (such as Bristol, Winchester, Reading, London, or Birmingham) subject to ability to travel to Oxford.

What you need to do to be effective in this role

• Lead the coordination and implementation of BIM processes across multidisciplinary project teams.
• Develop, manage, and maintain project-specific BIM Execution Plans and ensure compliance with client and industry standards.
• Support design teams in the use of digital tools and workflows, providing guidance and troubleshooting where necessary.
• Collaborate with stakeholders to ensure accurate and timely delivery of coordinated models and data.
• Monitor and audit model quality, clash detection, and data integrity throughout project lifecycles.
• Drive innovation in digital engineering by identifying opportunities to improve workflows and adopt emerging technologies.
• Provide training and mentoring to team members to enhance BIM capability and understanding.
• Liaise with clients, contractors, and consultants to ensure BIM deliverables meet expectations and contractual requirements.

Skills and experience you need to have for this role

• Proven experience in a BIM Coordinator or Manager role within the architecture, engineering, or construction industry.
• Strong proficiency in tools such as Solibri and ACC, with an understanding of Revit and Civil 3D.
• Solid understanding of ISO 19650 standards including the development of associated documentation.
• Experience managing federated models, clash detection processes, and data validation across complex projects.
• Ability to communicate technical concepts clearly to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
• Familiarity with Common Data Environments (CDEs) and structured data management practices.
• Knowledge of interoperability between software platforms and openBIM principles.
• Experience mentoring or training others in BIM processes and tools.
• A proactive approach to problem-solving and continuous improvement in digital delivery.
• Relevant qualifications in architectural technology, engineering, or digital construction, with additional BIM certifications being advantageous.
