Job description

Senior BIM Coordinator – MEP / LOD 400 / Off-Site Manufacturing

Location: Heywood, Greater Manchester Salary: £50,000–£60,000 + Package DOE Employment: Permanent, Full-Time

Mech Electrics are recruiting for an experienced Senior BIM Coordinator to join a specialist MEP contracto off-site manufacturing facility in Heywood, this is a specialist BIM position focused on taking coordinated MEP designs through to LOD 400 / fabrication level, supporting the manufacture and assembly of substantial prefabricated MEP modules.r delivering technically complex projects within the data centre sector.

We are looking for somebody who understands how detailed digital information translates into something that can actually be fabricated, assembled and installed.

The Role

• Developing coordinated MEP models through to LOD 400
• Producing fabrication and assembly-level model information
• Detailed modelling of mechanical and electrical services and associated supports and interfaces
• Developing and maintaining BIM families, components, catalogues and libraries
• Creating detailed assemblies and manufacturing-ready digital information
• Producing 3D visualisations and renders to support engineering and manufacturing
• Reviewing models for constructability, fabrication requirements and spatial coordination
• Working closely with CAD/BIM technicians and MEP design and project engineers
• Supporting the development of standardised modular assemblies and repeatable BIM content
• Liaising directly with the manufacturing team and incorporating shop-floor feedback into the digital model
• Ensuring manufactured assemblies accurately reflect the coordinated project model and installation requirements
• Supporting continuous improvement of BIM and DfMA processes

About You

We are particularly interested in BIM professionals who have moved beyond conventional design-stage coordination and have experience producing fabrication-level MEP information.

Ideally, you will have:

• Strong MEP / building-services BIM experience
• Demonstrable LOD 400 experience
• Experience of fabrication, prefabrication, modular MEP or DfMA
• Strong Revit capability
• Navisworks and BIM coordination experience
• Understanding of how mechanical and electrical services are physically assembled and installed
• Experience developing BIM families, component libraries or catalogues
• Strong understanding of constructability and spatial coordination
• The ability to work collaboratively with both digital and manufacturing teams

Previous data centre experience would be advantageous but is not essential.

We are equally interested in candidates from complex MEP environments including healthcare, pharmaceutical, cleanrooms, major commercial projects, airports, infrastructure and industrial facilities where detailed fabrication or modularisation has formed part of the delivery strategy.

The Opportunity

This is an opportunity to move beyond traditional BIM coordination and work directly at the interface between digital engineering, MEP construction and off-site manufacturing.

You will be based alongside the manufacturing operation, providing the opportunity to see the assemblies developed digitally being physically manufactured on the shop floor before installation onto major data centre projects.

For an experienced MEP BIM professional with genuine LOD 400 capability, this represents an opportunity to become an important part of a growing and highly sophisticated off-site manufacturing operation.
