Type: Permanent

Europlan is a leading international engineering and project services company, delivering innovative, safety-driven solutions across the energy and industrial sectors.

We are seeking an experienced and motivated BIM Manager to lead BIM and digital information delivery across our multidisciplinary engineering team. The successful candidate will be responsible for developing and implementing BIM standards, processes and workflows across the business, while leading and developing BIM and CAD resources across Ireland and the UK.

Working closely with engineering leads, project teams, clients, architects and contractors, the BIM Manager will provide leadership in BIM coordination and information management, supporting projects from mobilisation through design, construction and handover.

Key Responsibilities:

• Develop, implement and continuously improve Europlan's BIM strategy, standards, protocols, procedures and templates in accordance with ISO 19650 principles and project requirements.
• Establish and maintain project BIM standards, including model structures, naming conventions, classification, information requirements and model/drawing production procedures.
• Lead BIM mobilisation at project commencement, ensuring BIM requirements, responsibilities, deliverables and workflows are clearly defined.
• Prepare, coordinate and maintain BIM Execution Plans (BEPs), Master Information Delivery Plans (MIDPs), Task Information Delivery Plans (TIDPs) and other project BIM documentation as required.
• Establish and oversee Common Data Environment (CDE) workflows, including information status, revision, approval, issue and document-control procedures.
• Review client information requirements and ensure project BIM deliverables are appropriately planned and resourced.
• Lead, manage, mentor and support BIM Technicians and CAD Technicians working across Ireland and the UK.
• Plan and allocate BIM/CAD resources across multidisciplinary projects in conjunction with Engineering and Project Managers.
• Monitor team workload, project priorities and resource requirements, identifying potential constraints at an early stage.
• Promote consistent BIM standards, knowledge sharing and best practice across project teams.
• Oversee the production and coordination of multidisciplinary Revit models, structural and civil GA drawings, detailed drawings and as-built information.
• Lead model federation, multidisciplinary coordination and clash-detection processes using Navisworks and other appropriate platforms.
• Chair or contribute to BIM coordination meetings and ensure identified clashes and coordination issues are appropriately assigned, tracked and resolved.
• Establish and undertake model health checks, BIM audits and information-quality reviews.
• Ensure models and drawings comply with agreed BIM standards, project information requirements, client standards and internal quality procedures.
• Monitor BIM deliverables against project programmes and escape risks, resource constraints or information issues where necessary.
• Act as Europlan's principal BIM point of contact for clients and external project stakeholders where appropriate.
• Liaise with clients, engineers, architects, contractors and specialist consultants to establish and agree BIM requirements, responsibilities and deliverables.
• Provide technical BIM input during tendering, project mobilisation and contract delivery.
• Define BIM software, hardware and technology requirements in conjunction with IT and business management.
• Maintain strong technical capability across relevant platforms, including Revit, AutoCAD, Civil 3D, CADS RC and Navisworks.
• Maintain and develop standard templates, families, libraries, parameters and standard details.
• Evaluate emerging BIM and digital construction technologies and recommend appropriate improvements.
• Identify opportunities for automation, standardisation and process improvement to increase efficiency, consistency and quality.
• Promote interoperability and effective information exchange between different design disciplines and software platforms.
• Ensure BIM processes and information outputs comply with relevant Irish and UK project requirements, standards, regulations and internal quality-management procedures.
• Maintain appropriate records of model revisions, design changes, information exchanges, coordination issues and approvals.
• Support effective handover and delivery of record/as-built information at project completion.
