This is an excellent opportunity for someone with a background in engineering design, CAD, BIM, or digital engineering who has hands-on experience using AVEVA E3D and wants to play a key role in improving digital project delivery. You will work closely with engineers, designers, project managers, construction teams and clients to ensure models are accurate, coordinated and aligned with project standards. The role will involve model development, clash checking, drawing and report production, data validation, issue resolution and support for digital handover.

• Develop, maintain, and coordinate 3D engineering models using AVEVA E3D
• Support multi-discipline model development across piping, mechanical, structural, civil, electrical, instrumentation, HVAC or plant layout
• Produce and check model outputs, including general arrangement drawings, layouts, reports, material take-offs, bills of materials and other project deliverables
• Ensure model data is accurate, structured, complete, and aligned with project standards, client requirements and information management processes
• Carry out model reviews, clash checks, constructability reviews and design coordination activities
• Work with engineering teams to interpret P&IDs, specifications, design standards, equipment layouts, piping arrangements, cable routes, structural arrangements and vendor information
• Assist with creation, management and validation of tags, attributes, metadata, catalogues, specifications and model status information
• Maintain compliance with digital engineering procedures, CAD/BIM standards, naming conventions, revision controls and model governance
• Support integration between AVEVA E3D and other digital tools, including CDEs, document management systems, review platforms and reporting tools
• Assist with digital handover requirements, asset information deliverables, as-built model updates and final project information records
• Support continuous improvement of digital engineering workflows, automation, templates, reporting processes and model quality checks
• Liaise with designers, engineers, project managers, construction teams, clients, suppliers and subcontractors to resolve model and information issues
• Provide technical support and guidance on AVEVA E3D model use, data requirements and digital delivery processes

The following list outlines desirable skills and qualifications. We value relevant experience and potential, and encourage applications from individuals who may not possess all items:

• Practical experience using AVEVA E3D in an engineering design or project delivery environment
• Experience with AVEVA E3D administration, catalogues, specifications, model setup, rules, reports, drawing templates or project configuration
• Knowledge of AVEVA PDMS, AVEVA Diagrams, AVEVA Engineering, AVEVA Unified Engineering, AVEVA AIM or other AVEVA tools
• Experience working with 3D engineering models on complex, multi-discipline projects
• Good understanding of engineering design principles and project delivery processes
• Ability to read and interpret technical drawings, specifications, P&IDs, layouts, isometrics, equipment data and vendor documentation
• Experience producing or supporting engineering deliverables from a 3D model (drawings, reports, MTOs, BoMs, or model review outputs)
• Familiarity with clash detection, model coordination, model review and issue resolution processes
• Experience with PML scripting, automation, data extraction, reporting or workflow optimisation
• Experience with BIM or digital engineering standards, including ISO 19650
• Experience with common data environments such as ProjectWise, BIM 360/Autodesk Construction Cloud, SharePoint, Asite, Aconex, or similar
• Experience with design review and coordination tools such as Navisworks, Solibri, AutoCAD, Revit, MicroStation, SmartPlant or similar
• Experience working with point cloud data, laser scans, brownfield surveys or as-built verification
• Understanding of asset information requirements, digital twins, digital handover, or operational data management
• Experience in one or more sectors such as energy, nuclear, oil and gas, chemicals, water, utilities, power, marine, pharmaceutical, infrastructure, manufacturing or heavy industry

• HNC, HND, degree, apprenticeship or equivalent experience in engineering, design, digital engineering, CAD, BIM or related technical discipline
• Formal AVEVA E3D training, certification or demonstrable workplace experience
• Relevant discipline background in piping, mechanical, structural, civil, electrical, instrumentation, process, plant layout or building services engineering
• Membership of a relevant professional body (e.g., ICE, IMechE, IET, IChemE, CIOB) would be beneficial
