BIM Engineer

Open 5d

Digital engineering is changing the way critical infrastructure is designed and delivered. If you enjoy working at the intersection of engineering, technology, and collaboration, and you want to play a key role in projects that support the energy transition, this could be the opportunity for you. We are looking for a BIM Engineer who can bring complex engineering projects to life through accurate, intelligent, and coordinated 3D models.


Company Information

Our client is a leading engineering and infrastructure specialist delivering complex energy projects across the Netherlands. They provide engineering, design, construction, and maintenance services for critical power infrastructure and support some of the country's most important energy transition initiatives.

Their multidisciplinary teams work across the full project lifecycle, from feasibility and concept design through to detailed engineering, construction, and commissioning. Digital engineering and BIM form an integral part of their project delivery approach, helping to improve collaboration, reduce project risk, and enhance design quality.


Vacancy Information

As a BIM Engineer, you will be responsible for developing, managing, and coordinating BIM models for complex infrastructure and energy projects. Working closely with engineers, designers, project managers, and construction teams, you will ensure that project information is accurately represented and effectively coordinated across all disciplines.

This role is about more than creating models. You will play a key part in supporting project delivery by improving coordination, identifying design conflicts before construction, and ensuring that project information remains reliable and accessible throughout the project lifecycle.

You will have the opportunity to work on technically challenging projects that contribute directly to the future of the Netherlands' energy infrastructure.


Key Responsibilities

  • Developing and maintaining BIM models throughout the project lifecycle.
  • Coordinating multidisciplinary engineering models and identifying potential clashes and design conflicts.
  • Supporting engineers and designers with model-based design solutions and technical documentation.
  • Ensuring BIM standards, protocols, and project requirements are consistently applied.
  • Managing model revisions, project information, and data exchanges between stakeholders.
  • Producing drawings, schedules, and project documentation from BIM models.
  • Working with project teams to improve BIM workflows and digital engineering processes.
  • Supporting the successful delivery of infrastructure projects through accurate and coordinated project information.


What You Need

  • Bachelor’s degree or vocational qualification in Engineering, Construction, BIM, Civil Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or a related discipline.
  • Experience as a BIM Engineer, BIM Coordinator, BIM Modeler, or in a similar digital engineering role.
  • Strong proficiency with BIM software such as Revit, Navisworks, AutoCAD, or similar platforms.
  • Experience working within multidisciplinary engineering, infrastructure, industrial, construction, or utility projects.
  • Understanding of BIM methodologies, model coordination, and information management processes.
  • Strong attention to detail and a structured approach to technical work.
  • Excellent communication and collaboration skills.
  • Fluent in English, both written and spoken.


If you do not meet every requirement but have a strong project management background in building installations and genuine exposure to data center or mission critical projects, we still encourage you to apply. The right combination of technical understanding, project management experience, and motivation can make you a strong candidate.
