Job Title: BIM Coordinator (Electrical)

Job Description

The BIM Coordinator (Electrical) serves as a key member of the virtual design and construction team, leading coordination efforts for electrical systems across complex construction projects. This role focuses on integrating field operations with BIM processes, ensuring that electrical designs are accurately modeled, coordinated, and aligned with overall project standards. The position requires close collaboration with field supervisors, project managers, general contractors, and other MEP designers to deliver fully coordinated construction documents and support successful project execution.

Responsibilities

• Lead electrical systems coordination efforts for assigned projects, ensuring models are accurate, complete, and aligned with project requirements.
• Support and apply established coordination standards for both project-specific coordination and broader organizational BIM/VDC practices.
• Collaborate closely with field supervisors and project managers to integrate BIM models with field installation activities and construction sequencing.
• Work directly with general contractors and other MEP designers to identify, review, and resolve clashes and coordination issues within the BIM environment.
• Develop, update, and maintain electrical BIM models using Revit and other relevant tools throughout the project lifecycle.
• Participate in coordination meetings, present model updates, and communicate design and coordination changes to project stakeholders.
• Assist in producing coordinated construction documents that reflect resolved clashes, accurate routing, and constructible electrical designs.
• Ensure that electrical design intent is preserved while adapting models to field conditions and construction constraints.
• Use Navisworks and related software to perform clash detection, review coordination models, and document issues and resolutions.
• Support continuous improvement of BIM coordination workflows by providing feedback on standards, processes, and tools used in electrical modeling.

Essential Skills

• Minimum of 2+ years of coordination experience, preferably focused on electrical systems.
• Demonstrated BIM coordination experience on construction projects.
• Proficiency with Revit for electrical systems modeling and documentation.
• Hands-on experience using Navisworks for model review and clash detection.
• Working knowledge of AutoCAD for reviewing and producing construction documents.
• Prior experience modeling electrical systems within a BIM environment.
• Ability to collaborate effectively with general contractors and other MEP designers during project coordination.
• Understanding of MEP design principles and how they translate into coordinated construction models.
• Strong attention to detail and ability to maintain accuracy in complex electrical models.
• Effective communication skills for working with field supervisors, project managers, and design teams.

Additional Skills & Qualifications

• Experience working with electrical contractors and understanding field installation practices.
• Familiarity with construction documents and the process of converting coordinated models into issued drawings.
• Experience in VDC (Virtual Design and Construction) processes and workflows.
• Ability to interpret and apply coordination standards across multiple projects.
• Problem-solving skills to identify and resolve design and coordination conflicts in the BIM environment.
• Organizational skills to manage multiple coordination tasks and model updates within project deadlines.
