The Role
We are working with a specialist technical consultancy delivering sports surfaces, field-of-play and civil infrastructure projects across the UK and internationally.
They are seeking a hands-on Design Lead with a strong Civil Engineering background and advanced Revit capability to lead the production and coordination of detailed design information for complex sports and infrastructure schemes.
This is a technical, model-led role — ideal for a senior Revit-proficient CAD / BIM professional who wants ownership of design delivery rather than a purely managerial position.

Review and technically approve Revit outputs from internal teams and external consultants.
Civil & Infrastructure Design
Develop detailed designs for substructures, earthworks, drainage, surface build-ups and field-of-play systems.
Ensure designs are technically robust, buildable, and compliant with relevant standards.
Provide technical input during tender, construction, and site phases.
Project & Stakeholder Coordination
Act as the technical design interface with project managers, engineers, and contractors.
Support design programming and information delivery planning.
Mentor junior CAD / Revit technicians and engineers.
The Person
