Working within the Civil Works Alliance (a partnership between Balfour Beatty, Bouygues Travaux Publics and Laing O'Rourke), you'll support the delivery of cutting-edge digital engineering solutions across a major nuclear construction programme.

As a Digital Engineer, you'll work closely with the Digital Engineering Manager and wider project teams to develop and maintain high-quality digital models and data-driven outputs that support construction planning, coordination and delivery. This is a fantastic opportunity for someone passionate about digital construction, BIM and emerging technologies to develop their career on a nationally significant project.

What You'll Be Doing

• Producing, maintaining and federating 3D models using tools such as Tekla Structures, Navisworks and Civil 3D
• Supporting construction teams with visual planning outputs including 4D sequencing, buildability reviews and method statement visualisations
• Coordinating digital engineering activities across engineering, planning and site delivery teams
• Supporting model quality checking, clash detection and model data management
• Assisting with the delivery of graphical and non-graphical information in line with BIM execution plans and ISO 19650 standards
• Supporting the development and implementation of digital engineering processes, standards and workflows
• Working within a Common Data Environment (CDE) to manage project information effectively
• Supporting digital upskilling across project teams and supply chain partners
• Assisting with the development of 4D, 5D and asset information modelling processes throughout the project lifecycle

What We're Looking For

• Experience working in a Digital Engineering, BIM or similar construction technology role
• Knowledge of 3D and 4D modelling within major construction or infrastructure projects
• Experience using software such as Tekla Structures, Navisworks, AutoCAD, Civil 3D, Revit or similar platforms
• Understanding of BIM Level 2 standards and ISO 19650 principles
• Experience working within a Common Data Environment
• Strong communication and collaboration skills, with the ability to work across multidisciplinary teams
• A proactive mindset with a willingness to learn and develop within a major project environment
• Synchro and/or Solibri experience would be beneficial, but not essential

Why Join Us?

• Be part of one of the UK's largest and most complex infrastructure projects
