BIM Technician - Rail Civils

WSP is looking for a highly skilled and experienced BIM Technician – Civils to support the design and delivery of Lineside Rail Infrastructure Projects in UK-GCC T&I Team.

The candidate to have expertise in Building Information Modeling (BIM) and CAD design, ensuring accurate, coordinated, and efficient design outputs that meet project standards and client requirements.

MicroStation Experience

• Proven ability to produce accurate 2D rail‑civils drawings to UK standards.
• Experience developing and checking 2D and 3D models for multidisciplinary rail projects.
• Familiar with applying CAD QA processes, CRA‑V practices and structured drawing checks.
• Able to work from survey data, topographical information and other discipline inputs.
• Work through full CAD lifecycle (site data – model – drawing – QA) 

 3D / BIM Experience

• Capable of creating 3D MicroStation models (track slab, walkways, structural elements).
• Able to generate long sections, cross sections and cut‑through views to show design changes, ground variation and asset interfaces.
• Clash detection awareness — able to identify clashes visually within the 3D environment (e.g., structures vs gauge, walkway vs equipment zones, civils vs signalling), supporting coordinated design reviews.
• Experience supporting BIM‑aligned workflows, including multidisciplinary model coordination.
• Comfortable using LiDAR / point cloud data to inform accurate 3D modelling. 

🔹 ProjectWise Experience

• Confident navigating ProjectWise, including check‑in/out, version control and workflow management - correct assurance process from Drawer- Designer-Checker-Approver and setting up Document Sets
• Ensures compliance with naming conventions, metadata requirements and document control processes.
• Experienced issuing and managing CAD models and drawings within ProjectWise for UK and international rail projects  

🔹Rail Design Experience

• Base understanding of rail‑civils requirements, including key design principles such as gauges, clearances, heights, offsets, access/maintainability needs, structural constraints, and how these influence lineside civils, stations, depots and level crossing design.
• Understanding process of Technical Queries, how they are raised and what input from CAD would be required (sketches, checks, dimensions etc)
• Coordination with Multi Discipline teams like MEP, Architectural, E&P, Telecoms etc.
