BIM Manager
Structural Engineering | Lakewood, Colorado
We are seeking an experienced BIM Manager to lead model development, multidisciplinary coordination, and digital design standards for our structural engineering office in Lakewood, Colorado. This role supports complex industrial and commercial buildings, facilities, and mechanical infrastructure projects.
Job Summary
The BIM Manager is the office authority for Building Information Modeling and digital coordination on large, multidisciplinary design programs. The role focuses on creating models, and identifying, coordinating, and resolving cross-disciplinary system conflicts in the model before they affect construction.
This position has two primary areas of responsibility:
- Develop and maintain a shared structural engineering BIM environment from initial concept through progressive design milestones and construction-phase coordination.
- Develop and maintain a shared multidisciplinary BIM environment through the Virtual Design and Construction (VDC) phase of construction.
The BIM Manager establishes and enforces modeling standards, manages federated models, and leads clash detection and resolution across architectural, structural, mechanical, electrical, fire protection, civil, process, and security disciplines. The role works closely with discipline leads, the Design Manager, and client technical stakeholders to resolve coordination issues, verify model readiness at each design milestone, and support complete, construction-ready deliverables.
Duties and Responsibilities
- Establish, maintain, and enforce the office BIM execution plan, modeling standards, and level of development (LOD) requirements across project deliverables.
- Lead structural model development, federation, and coordination with all engineering disciplines, integrating architectural, structural, mechanical, electrical, fire protection, civil, process, and security models into a coordinated federated model.
- Plan and manage clash detection at each progressive design milestone; document identified conflicts, assign them to the appropriate discipline leads, and track each item through resolution.
- Confirm that model content, accuracy, and level of detail align with the review and deliverable requirements of each design milestone.
- Manage BIM technician staffing, workload, and production workflows to maintain consistent model quality, schedule performance, and compliance with office standards.
- Support constructability reviews by verifying that models account for field-installable conditions, sequencing, access, and clearance requirements.
- Develop and continually improve BIM standards, templates, tools, and workflows.
- Provide model-based visualization and coordination support for client design reviews and stakeholder workshops.
- Mentor staff and provide technical guidance on BIM practices, model coordination, and digital delivery.
Qualifications and Experience
- Bachelor’s degree in architecture, engineering, construction management, or a related technical discipline, or equivalent professional experience.
- A minimum of 10 years of experience in BIM management, model coordination, or a comparable digital design leadership role.
- Demonstrated experience managing federated models across multiple engineering disciplines on complex commercial or industrial projects.
- Experience supporting BIM-driven design development from concept through construction-ready or issued-for-construction (IFC) deliverables.
- Experience managing BIM production staff and coordinating workloads across multiple concurrent projects and design phases.
Skills and Abilities
- Exceptional attention to detail, supported by strong spatial awareness and cross-disciplinary reasoning.
- Clear written and verbal communication skills, including the ability to translate model-based technical conflicts into actionable guidance for discipline leads and non-technical stakeholders.
- Ability to lead coordination across multiple disciplines, projects, and design phases simultaneously.
- Strong organizational and documentation skills, with the ability to track clash detection findings, model revisions, decisions, and closeout activities throughout the project lifecycle.
- Advanced proficiency in Revit, Navisworks, AutoCAD, Bluebeam, and Microsoft Office.
- Familiarity with document control platforms and model/version management systems.

Tips for Your Bim Manager Job Search
Tailor your resume around deliverables
List specific BIM outputs you've owned: federated models, clash reports, execution plans, or LOD standards documentation. Hiring managers scan for tangible deliverables, not just software names, so be precise about what you produced and at what project scale.
Apply early to roles that fit
Migrate Mate lists bim manager openings from across the United States in one place, so you can find roles that match and apply directly to each listing.
Highlight software depth, not just breadth
Most job postings ask for Revit, Navisworks, or BIM 360, but what separates candidates is demonstrated depth. Show proficiency through project outcomes, not a checklist. Note any scripting or Dynamo automation you've implemented to solve coordination problems.
Filter openings by project type strategically
BIM manager roles in healthcare and data center construction have stricter LOD and handover requirements than commercial office work. Target your search toward the sector where your experience is strongest, since interviewers will probe that sector's specific standards in depth.
Prepare a coordination war story for interviews
Almost every bim manager interview includes a scenario question about a clash or data handover that went wrong. Prepare a specific example with a clear problem, your technical response, and the measurable outcome. Generic answers about teamwork won't differentiate you.
Negotiate scope, not just compensation
When an offer comes, clarify whether the role owns BIM standards across the whole firm or only one project. Scope determines your influence, your team size, and your path to a director-level title, so get that defined in writing before you sign.
Bim Manager Jobs: Frequently Asked Questions
Which companies are hiring the most bim managers?
The companies hiring the most bim managers right now include AECOM, HDR, and Prime Electric, with the largest share of openings in California, Georgia, and Texas, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. Demand is strongest at large general contractors, integrated design-build firms, and owners with capital infrastructure programs.
How many bim manager jobs are remote?
About 57% of bim manager openings are fully remote or hybrid as of November 2026, reflecting the coordination-heavy nature of the role, which often requires on-site presence during construction phases. Standards development, training, and model quality assurance tasks are the most likely to be performed remotely within otherwise on-site positions.
How do you become a bim manager?
Most bim managers start as BIM coordinators or model authors in architecture or engineering, building hands-on experience with Revit, clash workflows, and project delivery. Over time, you take ownership of BIM Execution Plans, lead coordination meetings, and eventually manage junior coordinators. Earning an Autodesk certification and contributing to firm-wide standards development signals readiness for a management-level role to most employers.
Can you get a bim manager job without much experience?
Entry into bim manager roles is competitive, but candidates who lack years of direct management experience can stand out by demonstrating deep technical fluency and ownership of at least one full project lifecycle. Building a portfolio of federated models, clash reports, and BIM Execution Plans you authored, and targeting smaller firms where coordinators grow into manager responsibilities faster, is the most practical path forward.
What does the bim manager interview process look like?
The interview process for bim manager roles typically begins with a recruiter or HR screen, followed by a technical interview with a senior BIM director or VDC lead who will probe your software depth, standards knowledge, and conflict resolution experience. Many firms then ask for a portfolio review or a short take-home exercise involving a model audit or clash report. Final rounds usually include a meeting with project directors or a principal to assess cross-disciplinary communication skills.
Where can I find and apply to bim manager jobs?
You can find and apply to bim manager jobs on Migrate Mate, which lists current openings from across the United States. Find roles that match your experience and specialization, then apply directly to each listing. All openings are sourced from employers actively hiring, so what you see reflects real, current demand.
