Job Title
Engineering Technician (2 x Senior, 6 x Technician)
Job Description
We are seeking a number of skilled Engineering Technicians ranging in seniority to support the delivery of high-quality BIM models and digital information across a range of major infrastructure projects in the UK and internationally. You will work closely with Engineers, Designers, Construction Teams and BIM Managers to produce coordinated, compliant models and drawings in line with project and client requirements.
This role is ideal for someone with strong technical modelling skills who is detail-oriented, collaborative, and keen to develop their career within a BIM-led environment. An engineering mind is essential, as we are looking for those that look beyond tracing from a marked up drawing, they will look to understand the content that they are producing, and have the confidence to question the integrity, should they feel that things could be done in a different way.
Frequent interaction with multiple team members, both internal and external is expected. We don’t expect you to sit and wait for answers, you will be integral to finding solutions.
An appreciation for Project Management, programming and cost will be beneficial to your role and is likely to distinguish between BIM Technician and Senior.
