• Working collaboratively with Digital, Engineering, Design and Information Management teams to identify opportunities for continuous improvement
• Promoting modern digital ways of working and supporting digital transformation initiatives across the programme
• Leading and mentoring a team responsible for supporting digital adoption across the project

What We’re Looking For

• Experience leading digital adoption, digital transformation or business improvement initiatives within construction, infrastructure or engineering environments
• Strong understanding of digital engineering, BIM, ISO 19650 and information management principles
• Experience developing digital training, knowledge management or organisational learning programmes
• Knowledge of digital construction platforms such as Trimble Connect, Solibri, BIMCollab, Autodesk Construction Cloud (ACC), Asite, Power BI or similar technologies
• Strong stakeholder management skills with the ability to influence and engage teams at all levels
• Experience driving process improvement, governance and organisational change
• Excellent communication, leadership and presentation skills
• Experience managing teams and delivering continuous improvement initiatives
• Project management or change management experience would be advantageous

Why Join Us?

• Be part of one of the UK's largest and most complex infrastructure projects
• Lead the development of digital best practice across a nationally significant programme
• Work within a collaborative alliance environment alongside industry‑leading organisations
• Influence how digital innovation, learning and knowledge sharing are embedded across the Civil Works Alliance
