Job description

Position Summary

We are seeking an experienced and technically proficient BIM Specialist to support engineering design and project delivery for Australian mining, resources and industrial infrastructure projects.

The successful candidate will be responsible for managing, coordinating and maintaining multidisciplinary Building Information Modelling (BIM) environments, ensuring the accuracy, consistency and integration of 3D engineering models throughout the project lifecycle.

This role requires strong technical knowledge of BIM processes, model coordination, clash detection, data management and digital engineering workflows.

Previous experience working on Australian mining, mineral processing, oil and gas, or heavy industrial projects will be highly regarded.

Key Responsibilities

BIM Modelling and Coordination

• Develop, manage and coordinate multidisciplinary 3D BIM models across structural, mechanical, piping, civil and electrical disciplines.

• Integrate models from different engineering platforms into a federated project model.

• Perform regular clash detection and coordinate the resolution of design conflicts with engineering and drafting teams.

• Maintain model accuracy, integrity and consistency throughout design development.

• Conduct model reviews and identify potential constructability, accessibility and maintenance issues.

• Support the production of coordinated engineering drawings, construction documentation and model deliverables.

BIM Standards and Quality Assurance

• Implement and maintain project BIM standards, procedures and modelling requirements.

• Assist with the development and implementation of BIM Execution Plans (BEPs).

• Ensure models comply with client specifications, applicable Australian standards and project BIM requirements.

• Monitor model naming conventions, coordinate systems, revision control and information requirements.

• Conduct quality assurance checks and model audits before issuing project deliverables.

• Maintain accurate model registers, coordination reports and issue tracking documentation.

Project Coordination and Collaboration

• Liaise with Australian-based engineers, designers, project managers and other project stakeholders.

• Facilitate multidisciplinary model reviews and BIM coordination meetings.

• Identify and resolve model integration and coordination issues.

• Support project teams in implementing efficient BIM workflows and digital engineering practices.

• Coordinate the exchange of model information between different software platforms and project participants.

• Assist in developing and improving internal BIM procedures, templates and modelling workflows.

Digital Engineering and Information Management

• Manage BIM deliverables within project Common Data Environments (CDEs).

• Ensure appropriate control of model revisions, file structures, metadata and document integration.

• Support interoperability between Autodesk, Bentley, Tekla and other engineering design platforms.

• Assist with model data extraction, quantity take-offs and reporting where required.

• Investigate opportunities to improve productivity through model automation, scripting and digital engineering technologies.

Required Qualifications and Experience

• Minimum 5 years of professional experience in BIM coordination, BIM modelling or digital engineering within engineering, construction or industrial projects.

• Bachelor's degree or diploma in Engineering, Architecture, Construction Management, Drafting or a related technical discipline.

• Demonstrated experience coordinating multidisciplinary 3D models.

• Strong understanding of clash detection, model federation and BIM quality assurance procedures.

• Working knowledge of BIM standards, model information requirements and project delivery workflows.

• Experience working with engineering design teams on large-scale or technically complex projects.

• Ability to interpret engineering drawings, specifications, P&IDs and 3D design models.

• Understanding of model coordinate systems, model referencing and design data exchange.

• Excellent organisational, analytical and problem-solving skills.

• Strong English communication skills, both written and verbal.

• Ability to work independently and collaborate effectively with Australian-based project teams.

Technical Software Skills

Essential – demonstrated experience with:

• Autodesk Navisworks Manage – model federation, clash detection and coordination.

• Autodesk AutoCAD and associated engineering design workflows.

• BIM model management, coordination and quality assurance.

• Common Data Environments and digital document management systems.

Highly Desirable – experience with one or more of:

• Autodesk Revit

• Autodesk Plant 3D

• Autodesk Civil 3D

• Autodesk Construction Cloud / BIM 360

• Tekla Structures

• Bentley MicroStation / OpenPlant

• Bentley ProjectWise

• Revizto or similar model coordination platforms

• Dynamo, Python or other BIM automation tools

Candidates are not expected to be proficient in every listed software package. Demonstrated multidisciplinary coordination expertise and strong capability in Navisworks Manage are particularly important.

Preferred Experience

Preference will be given to candidates who demonstrate:

• Previous experience delivering BIM services for Australian mining and resources projects.

• Involvement in mining infrastructure, mineral processing plants, bulk materials handling systems or industrial facilities.

• Familiarity with Australian engineering design practices, client standards and documentation requirements.

• Experience working with Australian engineering consultancies or EPC/EPCM contractors.

• Knowledge of ISO 19650 information management principles.

• Experience coordinating structural steel, mechanical equipment, piping and civil infrastructure models.

• Understanding of engineering project stages from concept and detailed design through to construction and as-built documentation.

• Experience implementing or improving BIM workflows and automation processes.

Key Competencies

• Strong technical understanding of multidisciplinary engineering coordination.

• High attention to detail and commitment to model quality.

• Effective communication with engineering and project delivery teams.

• Ability to identify and resolve model conflicts efficiently.

• Excellent time management and ability to meet project deadlines.

• Proactive approach to process improvement and technology adoption.

• Ability to manage multiple project models and competing priorities.

Key Performance Indicators

Success in this position will be measured by:

• Accuracy, consistency and quality of coordinated BIM models.

• Timely identification, reporting and resolution of model clashes.

• Compliance with project BIM standards and client deliverable requirements.

• Achievement of project model coordination milestones.

• Effective collaboration with Australian engineering and project teams.
