Revit Technician

Due to the continued expansion of our highly successful specialised engineering company, including our award-winning data centre design and build business, we have an exciting career opportunity for an enthusiastic Revit Technician.

The BIM Technician will support the development, coordination, and delivery of multi-disciplinary digital construction data. The primary focus is compiling technical details from design teams, architects, and engineers into a single, comprehensive building information model. This data ensures the structure is buildable and can be maintained throughout its lifecycle.

Based in our Chadderton office, the Revit Technician will be a key member of our CAD team.

Key Tasks and Responsibilities

Modelling & Documentation

• Create 3D Models: Build detailed 3D models for specific design disciplines (Architectural, Structural, or MEP) using advanced authoring software;
• Produce 2D Drawings: Extract and refine accurate 2D layouts, schematics, elevations, and schedules directly from the 3D model environment;
• Maintain Quality Control: Ensure all virtual assets comply with the project-specific BIM Execution Plan (BEP) and internal standard operating procedures;
• Manage Version Control: Track design changes and maintain accurate model revision history across live project environments.

Coordination & Collaboration

• Perform Clash Detection: Identify spatial conflicts between architectural, structural, and mechanical/plumbing elements;
• Consolidate Data: Extract take-offs and compile multiple external vendor drawings into a unified central master model;
• Team Communication: Participate in weekly coordination meetings to action design changes and troubleshoot technical problems.

Content Library Management

• Develop Custom Families: Create and manage dynamic content blocks, Revit Families, and parametric data templates;
• Integrate Information: Embed manufacturer data into the model to support downstream processes like asset data tracking and facility maintenance.

Technical Skills

• Software Mastery: Proficiency in Autodesk Revit, AutoCAD, Navisworks, and associated design tools. Experience using Autodesk Forma and Cloud Shared models to work collaboratively with the Design teams;
• Standards Awareness: Solid understanding of ISO 19650 standards and generic BIM processes;
• Data Literacy: Familiarity with structured datasets like COBie or standard spreadsheets.

Education & Experience

• Typically requires 1 to 3+ years of experience working in a CAD or BIM-focused construction role.

Essential Skills

• High attention to detail and structural accuracy;
• Excellent written and verbal communication for cross-team coordination;
• Adaptability to manage shifting project priorities and strict submission deadlines.
