Lead Civil, Construction & BIM Engineer

About the role

As part of the FACTS Solution Line Electromechanical team, the Lead Civil, Construction & BIM Engineer leads and coordinates civil, structural, construction and BIM engineering activities across FACTS tenders and projects. The role supports the development of standard engineering solutions, reference layouts, BIM models, foundation concepts and construction guidelines for technologies such as STATCOM and SVC, working with multidisciplinary and regional teams. It is a hands-on technical role with responsibility for assigned work packages.

Key responsibilities

• Lead civil, structural, construction and BIM engineering for assigned FACTS projects and tenders, including design criteria, reference layouts, foundation concepts, structural requirements, BIM models, technical specifications, quantities and contractor inputs.
• Coordinate engineering deliverables, technical reviews, interfaces and design inputs across layout, mechanical, electrical, MV equipment, valve, cooling, regional teams, consultants and contractors.
• Support tenders and project execution with preliminary layouts, civil assumptions, technical clarifications, quantities and identification of cost, schedule, constructability and execution risks.
• Apply and help develop FACTS reference solutions, standard designs, BIM content and engineering guidelines, and capture lessons learned.
• Review and optimise civil and structural solutions for technical quality, constructability and cost awareness, including foundations, steelwork, site layout, buildings, cable routes, materials and construction methods.

Required profile

• Bachelor's or Master's degree in Civil, Structural, Construction Engineering or a related discipline, with relevant experience in substations, converter stations, power generation, industrial facilities, transmission infrastructure or similar.
• Practical experience in foundations, structural steel, industrial buildings, equipment supports, trenches, drainage, roads and wider site infrastructure.
• Ability to lead assigned engineering work packages independently, with good written and verbal English.
• Desirable: knowledge of soil mechanics, reinforced concrete, seismic design and equipment foundations, and familiarity with FACTS systems, STATCOM, SVC and high-voltage substations.

Required skills

• Experience in BIM-based civil or structural engineering, including multidisciplinary model coordination, with proficiency in Revit or comparable BIM / structural modelling tools.
• Experience preparing or reviewing civil documentation, technical specifications, quantities, design inputs and contractor deliverables.
• Desirable: experience coordinating multidisciplinary interfaces and understanding how design decisions affect quantities, installation, duration, risk and total installed cost.
