Job Description
BIM Manager / Senior Digital Engineer
Award winning Digital Engineering (BIM) Consultancy
Salary: £50,000 - £65,000, £5,000 car allowance, 7.5% bonus, pen & health
Location: Bristol, Winchester, London, Bimingham flex across offices & client site
Clearance: SC clearance held, or eligibility to obtain it, is essential
Progression: A clear route to Associate, Senior Associate and Partner
The role
We are looking for an experienced BIM Manager or Senior Digital Engineer, or an ambitious BIM Coordinator ready for the step up, to join the Digital Engineering Consultancy part of a leading national multidisciplinary property & construction consultancy. It is one of a small number of positions in the team that carries security clearance. You will be trusted with work that most consultancies simply cannot touch: MOD and Defence Infrastructure Organisation programmes, Prime defence clients and contractors, and secure estates in the UK and Cyprus. Alongside that sits a genuinely varied portfolio, from schools under the new DfE CF25 framework to data centres, Formula 1 and JLR manufacturing facilities, and a landmark museum scheme in Saudi Arabia. If you want your BIM career to be more than clash detection on a single programme, this is the job.
Why now
* A renewed place on the CCS framework. The business has just secured its position on the renewed Crown Commercial Service framework, giving ongoing access to a wide spread of public sector opportunity, including defence, central government and education.
* Deliberate expansion into infrastructure. A senior hire joins in October to drive opportunities across the infrastructure sectors, opening a new stream of work for the digital team to support from the outset.
* Breadth of framework access. From CCS and the Department for Education’s £15.4bn CF25 framework through to wider national positions, the routes to market are unusually broad. That means a deep and varied pipeline rather than dependence on any one client.
What you will work on
Defence and secure environments. The core of the role. You will support MOD and DIO programmes alongside Prime defence clients and contractors, mostly in the UK with a number of schemes in Cyprus. Recent commissions include the new passenger handling facility and freight terminal at RAF Akrotiri, estate improvements and single living accommodation at the Defence Academy of the UK for Serco, the Boeing Defence UK aircraft facility at Lossiemouth, and a global property assessment for the Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office. This is work where information security, data governance and disciplined ISO 19650 practice genuinely matter.
Education, through DfE and CF25. Education delivery is growing through CF25, the £15.4bn Construction Framework 2025, which runs to 2032 and covers schools, academies, sixth form and further education colleges across England. Consistent, repeatable digital standards across a rolling programme of schemes is exactly the challenge that rewards a well designed BIM process.
Data centres. A fast growing part of the business, and one of the most digitally demanding typologies there is: dense MEP coordination, rigorous clash resolution and structured asset data from day one.
Culture, including an international landmark. An exciting museum scheme is underway in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, alongside UK cultural and heritage work. Highly ambitious architecture, complex geometry, and a real test of coordination skills.
Advanced manufacturing, Formula 1 and JLR. A healthy and continuing pipeline. Recent projects include the JLR Noise, Vibration and Harshness Centre in Warwickshire with Laing O’Rourke, JLR’s Damson Parkway logistics facility, Project Genesis for Rolls-Royce, and the Silverstone Rallycross Circuit.
Infrastructure, the next chapter. With a key hire joining in October to build the infrastructure presence, there is a real opportunity to shape how digital engineering is delivered in a growing sector from the ground up.
Security clearance
This role requires SC (Security Check) clearance. The business will support the right candidate through the process, but you must be eligible, which normally means five years of continuous UK residency. If you already hold current SC or DV clearance, please say so, as it will accelerate your route into project work.
The business and the team
A multidisciplinary property and construction consultancy with roots stretching back over 75 years, more than 1,400 people, and over 80% repeat business. Flagship schemes include Phase 2 of Battersea Power Station, a £1.5bn project for Skanska, and the £1.3bn ten year programme centred on the Ellison Institute of Technology at Oxford Science Park.
The Digital Engineering team brings structure and purpose to project information so that it actively supports decision making. Recent work includes the transformation of Osney Power Station into a global centre of executive education for the Saïd Business School, the University of Portsmouth campus masterplan, and a retrofit framework for Sovereign Network Group. Services span:
* Information management under the IMI Framework, covering EIRs, BEPs and CDE governance
* Independent BIM coordination, rules based checking and digital walkthroughs
* 4D planning, linking programme to geometry to test sequencing, logistics and temporary works
* Award winning digital fire compliance reviews, evidencing fire stopping against Approved Document B and the golden thread
* Data management and analytics, digital facilities management, laser scanning and drone survey, and bespoke application development
Key responsibilities
* Lead the coordination and implementation of BIM processes across multidisciplinary project teams.
* Develop and maintain project specific BIM Execution Plans, EIRs and associated ISO 19650 documentation.
* Act as information manager on defence and public sector commissions, applying appropriate handling, classification and data governance to secure project information.
* Manage federated models, clash detection and data validation, monitoring model quality and data integrity across the project lifecycle.
* Deliver coordinated models and structured asset data, including COBie and operational handover information.
* Support design teams in the use of digital tools and workflows, and liaise with clients, contractors and consultants to ensure deliverables meet contractual requirements.
* Mentor colleagues, drive workflow innovation, and support bid activity that converts framework access into won work.
Skills and experience
A technically confident construction, engineering or architectural professional. Building experience is the most natural fit, though strong civils background is still considered
Essential
* SC clearance, or eligibility to obtain it.
* Solid understanding of ISO 19650, including the development of associated documentation.
* Experience managing federated models, clash detection and data validation on complex projects.
* Proficiency in tools such as Solibri and Autodesk Construction Cloud, with a working understanding of Revit and Civil 3D, and familiarity with Common Data Environments.
* Relevant qualifications in architectural technology, engineering, digital construction or equivalent experience.
* The ability to communicate technical concepts clearly to specialists and non specialists alike. This is a client facing role.
* Open to Main Contractor, Architectural or Consultancy backgrounds with a good undernstading of the BIM / Project lifecycle.
Desirable
* Current or previous SC or DV clearance, and experience on MOD, DIO or Prime defence contractor projects.
* Additional BIM or information management certifications, and experience of COBie and asset information requirements.
* Exposure to 4D planning, data analytics, or BIM automation and scripting such as Dynamo, Python or C#.
* Knowledge of interoperability between platforms and openBIM principles, and experience mentoring others.
Working arrangements and what is on offer
Agile working, typically three days across office, client or project site, with flexibility around the rest.
Regular site presence including periodic travel to defence establishments, plus some international travel in connection with the Cyprus and Saudi Arabia schemes.
Applicants within commuting distance of Bristol, Winchester, Reading, London, Oxford or Birmingham are particularly encouraged to apply.
Sponsorship through the SC clearance process, support with professional membership and chartership, and a defined path to Associate, Senior Associate and Partner.
Recognised as a UK Best Workplace in 2026, and a proud supporter of the Armed Forces Covenant.
