What you'll do
The Role We're looking for a driven, hands-on Design Lead to steer design delivery on complex engineering and construction projects. You'll coordinate across Electrical, HVAC, Piping, and CSA (Civil, Structural & Architectural) disciplines — keeping design, construction, procurement, and project execution teams pulling in the same direction. This is a role for someone who can read a room as well as a BIM model: technically sharp, commercially aware, and comfortable being the person who unblocks a stalled project. Key Responsibilities: Design Coordination
- Run multidisciplinary design coordination and review meetings
- Dig into BIM models to catch clashes and interface issues before they become site problems
- Keep design deliverables locked to project schedules and construction milestones
- Be the connective tissue between discipline leads, site teams, and project management
Project Leadership
- Drive design progress and clear obstacles before they cause delays
- Own the tracker: actions, risks, decisions, open items
- Flag critical issues early and bring solutions, not just problems
Stakeholder Management
- Build genuine working relationships, internally and externally
- Translate fluently between technical and non-technical audiences
- Keep design intent, construction reality, and project goals aligned
Design Decision-Making
- Weigh every design call against cost, schedule, procurement, constructability, and installation sequencing
- Push for solutions that are coordinated and actually buildable — not just clever
Requirements:
- A degree or technical diploma in Engineering, Construction, Building Services, BIM, or similar
- Experience in multidisciplinary design environments
- Solid grounding in at least one of: Electrical, HVAC, Piping, or CSA
- Working knowledge of BIM and 3D model coordination
- Professional-level English communication
- The ability to herd multiple disciplines toward one outcome
- Exposure to large-scale construction, industrial, infrastructure, pharma, or data center projects
