We are Rolls-Royce SMR and we’re doing something that’s never been done before. We’re revolutionising an industry. That’s a once-in-a-career opportunity for those excited by such a challenge. This is more than just a job; this is a legacy.
We are now recruiting for the exciting role of BIM Manager, to be involved in industry leading, cutting-edge design project for a new type of power station.
The BIM Manager will be the focal point of contact for project digital delivery and the coordination of different digital streams, such as BIM, 4D, GIS, IM to drive forward a “design for construction” approach utilising data and construction technology. The role has an overarching understanding of the different interfaces during project delivery across design and construction and will play a pivotal role in enabling their coordination, integration and engagement with the client. The role will be accountable for establishing and maintaining a robust framework of BIM Management processes and procedures to support the repeatable construction of Rolls-Royce SMRs globally. The role will manage a team accountable for the management of BIM, with an opportunity to strongly influence the implementation of best-in-class processes and tools in a complex programme environment.

* Lead the development and deployment of digital construction data and Information & Communication Technologies (ICTs) to drive forward project certainty, productivity, quality & safety.
* Provide technical expertise in construction data management, construction technology (such as 4D/5D Information Systems) and act as the focal point for integration of different digital streams.
* Ensure the integrity, interoperability and integration of construction data and technology to facilitate digital rehearsals, construction digital twin delivery and digital handover.
* Lead the programme management of the delivery of digital construction solutions focusing on cost, time & quality.
* Empower a “design for construction” project delivery mindset within Rolls-Royce SMR and foster collaborative project delivery.
* Provide guidance on model, data and technology delivery, review, coordination, federation and integration to ensure that company and project standards are maintained on all deliverables including as designed, issued for construction and as-built.
