The position is part of a strategic push to lead the construction sector in digitization, digital engineering, and innovative data management for large-scale infrastructure programmes.

You will contribute to a vision that moves beyond traditional design by integrating digital twinning, smart cities, and data science. The ultimate goal is to engineer a more resilient, net-zero future by pushing the limits of how technology can improve the built environment.
Your Role
- Work with clients and project teams to assess information management needs and identify opportunities to improve digital delivery, collaboration and information governance.
- Advise on, promote and support the adoption of Common Data Environment (CDE) solutions, helping teams understand the value they bring to project delivery and information management.
- Configure, administer and support CDE and project information systems, ensuring they remain aligned with project requirements and industry best practice.
- Provide specialist guidance, training and support to users, project teams and stakeholders.
- Troubleshoot system, process and user issues, escalating where required and driving practical resolution.
- Support audits, assurance activities and reporting on information management compliance, document status and information quality.
- Contribute to bids, client discussions and digital delivery strategies by providing subject matter expertise on CDEs, information management and project technology.
- Stay informed of developments across the wider infrastructure technology ecosystem, including Autodesk Forma, Autodesk Construction Cloud, Asite, Bentley ProjectWise, Trimble Connect, Oracle Aconex and other relevant platforms.
About You
You will bring strong CDE, EDMS or information management experience from infrastructure, engineering, construction or a related project delivery environment. You should be comfortable engaging with clients and project teams to understand their challenges, identify opportunities for improvement and recommend practical information management and digital delivery solutions.
