For assigned design projects, manage the end-to-end activity including customer/stakeholder interaction and scope management, design and technical drawing and associated documentation, governance and compliance with regulation, standards and practices and supporting in a consultative manner post design stage for example during fabrication or installation. Ensure all drawings and designs are compliant with:
Relevant building regulations and standards Product technical specifications Customer specification Company design principles Construction (Design and Management) Regulations 2015
Create, review and update AutoCAD drawings with precise detailing and accuracy. For assigned projects produce full project drawings packs for customer approval. These packs should include relevant elevations, plans and sections. Project Management: Work on multiple design projects simultaneously, ensuring deadlines are met, expectations and stakeholders managed throughout, and the quality of output is to a high standard. Ensure all documents, drawings and information are saved onto correct internal and external systems and portals (such as Smartsheet, 4P, Asite, Procore) Liaise effectively and appropriately with internal and external stakeholders such as architects, engineers, and colleagues to gather necessary information, ensure design compatibility and enable smooth delivery of customer requirements.
