Preferred Skills Hands-on familiarity with one or more CDE/BIM/construction collaboration platforms (e.g., Autodesk, Nemetschek, LeapThought) Working knowledge of CDE principles and ISO 19650 concepts (e.g., information requirements, status/revision/suitability, approval workflows) Experience in construction, property development, facilities management, asset operations, or the wider built environment Familiarity with BIM, digital engineering, model/document coordination, and project-to-operations information handover Experience with business process modelling, service design, data mapping, or process improvement methods Understanding of systems integration, master data, APIs, reporting, or analytics within enterprise information ecosystems Familiarity with product delivery tools/methodologies (e.g., Jira, Azure DevOps, Confluence, SharePoint, Scrum, Kanban) Exposure to enterprise transformation, governance, compliance, or large-scale digitalisation initiatives across different client environments What Success Looks Like Project, construction, handover, and operational information moves consistently across lifecycle stages with minimal rework or loss of context CDE governance, standards, ownership, and approval workflows are clearly understood and adopted across client stakeholders Business and information workflows are clearly documented, validated, and translated into scalable digital processes Data quality, completeness, traceability, and reuse improve across client products and CDE ecosystems Delivery teams have clear, testable requirements aligned to operational outcomes and information governance obligations Stakeholders spend less time resolving ambiguity, locating information, or reconciling inconsistent processes/data Ideal Candidate Profile Process-oriented analyst who treats the “product” as the information lifecycle enabled through the platform—not just the software Able to move between construction delivery, asset operations, information governance, and digital product teams Strong at uncovering ownership, standards, and handoffs, and converting complex operational practices into scalable CDE workflows
