An experienced BIM & Digital Design Manager is required to join an award-winning international architectural practice in a newly created position. This is a significant appointment for the business, created to provide dedicated leadership across BIM, computational design, digital workflows, and emerging technologies across its studios.

Reporting to a Partner but operating with considerable autonomy, the successful candidate will have the opportunity to shape how the practice designs and delivers projects digitally, taking ownership of BIM standards, Revit and Forma environments, information management, automation, and emerging technologies including AI and digital twins. There may also be scope to develop a wider digital/BIM team around the successful individual as the function evolves.
