CAREER OPPORTUNITY OF THE WEEK

 

Senior BIM Coordinator: London:

In the current market it’s unusual for a design team to offer a ‘competent’ BIM Coordinator (see the BIM Career Ladder for defintions) the opportunity to step up and progress to a ‘proficient’ level.  It’s even more unusual for it to be with such a high quality team needing a lietenant to help lead the London team.

 

 

ARTICLE OF THE WEEK

Forget about Brexit 2020.  Is the construction industry going to push digitalisation harder next year?  Sander van de Rijdt provides an interesting insight on BIM+

 

 

QUOTE OF THE WEEK

Buy a shotgun.

Keith Clarke, Chair of Forum for the Future.  If global temperatures rise above 2ºC by 2040 we won’t need a pension, we’ll need a shotgun!
