BIM / CAD Technician

The BIM / CAD Technician is responsible for producing, updating and quality-assuring 3D models, 2D CAD outputs and associated model data across SCS JV assets.

The role primarily supports Stage 5 construction and Stage 6 as-built model development using approved design, construction, survey and field-change information.

The role also provides data development and automation support to improve model quality, validation and information delivery, working under the direction of the BIM Lead / BIM Coordinator and in accordance with SCS and HS2 BIM and CAD requirements.

Flexible working: We welcome you to ask about the flexibility you need.

This might be part-time, remote working, or compressed hours for example.

Anyone who applies for a role can ask about flexibility at interview.

In return, we will explore what is possible for the role.

• Role Responsibility
• Produce and update 3D BIM/CAD models and model-derived 2D technical outputs in project-approved authoring software, in accordance with the SCS BIM Execution Plan and HS2 CAD Specification (HS2-HS2-IM-SPE-000-000006).
• Update models from approved inputs including design changes, field changes, NCRs, red- line information, survey data and as-built records; raise discrepancies and do not introduce unapproved design changes.
• Apply SCS modelling requirements for project coordinates, levels, naming, classification, Level of Detail (Lo D), Level of Model Information (Lo MI), asset identifiers, properties/metadata and model structure.
• Perform model QA and health checks, basic clash and coordination reviews, and support federated model production and validation across disciplines and supply chain packages.
• Support native and IFC information exchange, model conversion and validation, checking that geometry and property information remain complete and consistent following translation.
• Ensure models and drawings are managed through the Common Data Environment (Project Wise / ACC) with the correct naming, revision, status, metadata and traceability.
• Support key BIM deliverables including the Data Acceptance Certificate (DAC), Model Production Delivery Table (MPDT), model assurance records and graphical/non-graphical information checks for Stage 5 and Stage 6 handover.
• Work with BIM Coordinators, engineering, design, construction, survey and the supply chain to resolve modelling and information issues and keep model information aligned with the approved construction status.
• Support controlled data development and automation using Python, SQL, ETL or similar tools to improve repetitive model/data checks, extraction, transformation, reporting and,
