BIM Manager

ABOUT THE JOB
We are looking to bring a BIM Manager on board to join the Metals & Minerals team and take part in a pioneering international project in the steel sector, located in Sweden. This role will play a key part in the leadership, coordination, and BIM governance of the project.
The role is clearly management‑oriented, with real responsibility for the BIM implementation of the project, reporting directly to the Engineering and Project Management leadership. This is not a modelling position, but one focused on leadership, coordination, and decision‑making, supported by a solid technical foundation.
Key responsibilities:

• Define, lead, and maintain the project's BIM strategy, ensuring its correct implementation throughout the entire lifecycle.
• Exercise BIM governance, guaranteeing compliance with standards, processes, deadlines, quality requirements, and contractual commitments related to BIM.
• Coordinate and manage internal and external BIM teams, as well as interactions between disciplines, engineering teams, contractors, and suppliers.
• Manage complex interfaces between disciplines and companies, anticipating risks and proposing mitigation measures.
• Oversee BIM progress tracking, issue management, clashes, and conflicts from a global project perspective.
• Act as the main BIM point of contact for the client, providing technical judgement, autonomy, and problem‑solving capability.
• Lead the definition and monitoring of reporting, KPIs, and BIM dashboards to support decision‑making.
• Promote BIM best practices, continuous improvement, and a culture of collaboration in digital environments.
• Ensure proper use of collaborative platforms and CDEs, without becoming involved in operational modeling tasks.

Experience and Requirements:

• Are an Engineer or Architect.
• Have 6 to 10 years of experience in BIM environments, with proven experience in BIM Manager roles or BIM leadership in industrial or large‑scale projects.
• A profile clearly oriented toward management, leadership, and team coordination rather than day‑to‑day technical execution.
• Experience working on international projects with multiple stakeholders and multicultural environments.
• Stand out for your communication skills, organization, and ability to lead multidisciplinary meetings.
• Autonomy, proactivity and have your own criteria, and are capable of making decisions.
• A solid BIM technical foundation that allows you to oversee tools and processes without needing an operational approach.
• Knowledge about open formats (IFC) and best coordination practices.
• Experience with Navisworks Manage: model federation, clash detection, and reporting.
• Experience in BIM interoperability in international projects.
• Strong knowledge of Autodesk Construction Cloud (ACC): Docs, Model Coordination, and Manage.
• Experience in reporting and dashboards applied to BIM and project management.
• Familiarity with industrial collaborative environments such as AVEVA Global (desirable)
• An advanced level of English.
