We are seeking a highly skilled BIM Modeller to join our growing BIM team within a dynamic architectural practice. As a BIM Modeller, your primary responsibility is the accurate and efficient development of BIM models across multiple disciplines, including Architecture, Structure, Interiors and MEPF services. A strong emphasis is placed on Revit expertise, parametric modelling, and Scan-to-BIM workflows, ensuring that various data sources are translated into high quality, information rich models aligned with dhk BIM Best Practices.

The ideal candidate is a technically strong Revit user who understands how disciplined modelling directly impacts coordination, documentation efficiency, data quality and project delivery. We offer a competitive salary and an environment that encourages growth, innovation and excellence in the BIM field.

• Develop accurate, information rich BIM models in Revit across Architecture, Structure, Interiors and MEPF services.
• Execute Scan-to-BIM workflows, including point cloud processing and conversion into well structured Revit models.
• Implement the BIM Execution Plan and ensure adherence to dhk BIM Best Practices.
• Apply ISO19650 modelling and naming conventions appropriately within all Revit environments.
• Create, modify and manage Revit families, ensuring correct parameters, classification, nesting and performance.
• Use advanced Revit functions such as view templates, filters, work sets, phasing, design options, and schedules.
• Prepare coordinated exports, extractions, sheets and documentation for project teams.
• Maintain model health through regular clean ups, audits and optimisation.
• Support asset data integration (COBie, Uniclass, Omniclass) where required.

• Strong command of parametric modelling and understanding of model behaviour.
• Ability to troubleshoot Revit issues including view errors, warnings, worksharing conflicts and modelling anomalies.
• Efficient use of Revit add ins, plugins, point cloud tools and productivity extensions.
• Proficiency in setting up templates, shared parameters and discipline specific modelling workflows.
• Understanding of the impact of modelling decisions on downstream coordination and documentation.
• Ability to manage model performance, work set strategy, file size control, family optimisation.

• Assist project teams with Revit related queries, modelling problems and workflow guidance.
• Collaborate with BIM Coordinators and the BIM Manager to resolve model issues efficiently.
• Provide input on improving modelling workflows, automation opportunities and digital efficiencies.
• Assist with software related queries in coordination with BIM Coordinators and Managers.

• Participate in internal BIM and Revit training sessions.
• Maintain an advanced level of competency in Revit and related BIM tools.
• Stay current with Revit releases, new tools, industry modelling trends and digital construction workflows.

• Support teams with accurate and consistent BIM production throughout project lifecycles.
• Assist in Revit project setup under guidance from BIM Coordinators and the BIM Manager.
• Coordinate updates with architects, engineers and specialists to maintain model integrity.
• Assist in clash detection preparation, model clean ups and QA processes.
• Ensure full compliance with BIM structures, naming conventions and documentation protocols.

• Minimum 3 years of hands on Revit modelling experience.
