2D Civil CAD Technician Working at £2b Hinkley Point Project who is interested in being developed into a BIM / Digital Engineer, full training will be provided.

Overview

CAD Technician who are experienced on civil/structural projects is required to work on one of the worlds mega projects – Hinkley Point C Nuclear Power Plant, the person will based from the project office and the project will last 7 years and you will be working in the CAD / Digital Engineering Team.

The CAD Technicians will be responsible for the production of accurate and timely technical drawings required for the Hinkley Point Project. This will be a fast paced very varied role where you will be detailing whatever the site teams need you to do, for methodology of work, week by week slide, temporary works arrangement. Could be concrete drawing, earthworks, steel, drainage & general civil engineering.

AutoCAD will be detailing package used. This role is on site and as such you will be close to the construction and will get a really good feel for the construction methodology right the way through the build.

You will also be given the opportunity and gain training to move into a full BIM/Digital Engineer role working for the recognised industry leaders in BIM.
