Aligned Design Studio is a specialist design consultancy focused on Modern Methods of Construction (MMC), and complex project analysis and consulting.
We work with major contractors, developers, manufacturers, consultants and wider project teams across sectors including healthcare, aviation and data centres. Our work sits at the intersection of architecture, engineering, manufacturing and construction, helping clients deliver projects more efficiently through standardisation, offsite construction, design optimisation, logistics planning and technical coordination.
We’re a small nurturing, close-knit team working across the UK and internationally. Everyone has visibility of the work and a voice in how we do it.
THE ROLE
We are looking for a BIM Lead / BIM Coordinator to work with our team to help develop our existing BIM standards and drive BIM implementation across the studio while supporting project teams with hands on modelling and coordination.
You’ll work closely with the Directors and project leads to ensure our BIM environment supports both day-to-day delivery and the requirements of complex external projects. It would suit someone who enjoys both technical problem solving and hands-on modelling, and who is keen to play a central role in developing BIM within a growing practice.
