You'll understand the practical challenges involved in taking designs from concept through detailed design, manufacturing and site installation, particularly where programme, quality and buildability are critical.
You'll be confident working with Revit and AutoCAD, coordinating consultants and managing design information across several project disciplines.
Strong communication skills, attention to detail and the ability to manage competing design priorities will be important.
Experience with a Tier 1 or Tier 2 main contractor, modular construction company or design consultancy is required, while direct experience in offsite manufacturing would be particularly beneficial.
