- Manage federated models and oversee clash detection workflows where required.
- Support project teams to meet programme, quality, and information delivery milestones.

Software andamp; Systems Expertise:

- Lead and develop use of BIM software (e.g., Revit, Navisworks, ACC/BIM 360 or similar).
- Advise on model structuring, parametric families, shared parameters, and data integrity.
- Support digital workflows including coordination, issue tracking, and model-based reviews.
- Identify and implement new tools or efficiencies where appropriate.

Skills andamp; Experience:

- Strong experience as a BIM Manager or BIM Coordinator, ideally in an architectural practice.

- Excellent communication skills with the ability to work with designers, technologists, and consultants.

Why Join:

- Opportunity to lead BIM across the practice and mentor teams.
- Supportive, creative work environment with career growth opportunities.
