This is a CAD/BIM manager role that includes the management, development and resourcing for the existing UK CAD function (team of 20 across all offices), the allocation of CAD/modelling on projects, with a “hands on” lead capacity and also be accountable for transitioning the CAD function to be BIM focused. This involves establishing robust CAD drafting and BIM Modelling standards, procedures, and techniques across the company and developing a BIM Object Library to BS 8541 standards.
Then Company will move to a position whereby all 2D output is derived and cut from 3D BIM models. It is a hands-on pragmatic role and will involve the training of staff and the provision of practical support to project teams in the use and application of 3D Modelling software and associated tools. This is an excellent high profile career development opportunity for the successful candidate to become expert in leading edge BIM processes and technologies.
The implementation of industry-leading building information management (BIM) is central to the company’s efficient project execution and growth strategy. All new projects are following the BIM process, namely;
