About the role

This position is listed on behalf of a partner company, who manages all applications and next steps. Our partner is looking for a Virtual Construction Manager based in the United States.

The Virtual Construction Manager will lead Building Information Modeling (BIM) and Virtual Design and Construction (VDC) initiatives across construction projects, combining technical expertise with team leadership. This role oversees design and trade coordination, construction technology support, reality capture, visualization, and field integration. You will drive the implementation of project-specific BIM/VDC processes, ensuring that digital models support efficient planning, coordination, and construction execution. Working closely with designers, subcontractors, project managers, and field teams, you will identify potential conflicts, improve constructability, and resolve design and installation challenges. You will also mentor VDC professionals and promote the adoption of innovative construction technologies. This is an opportunity to influence project delivery, strengthen collaboration, and advance digital construction practices across the organization.

Accountabilities

As Virtual Construction Manager, you will oversee BIM/VDC strategy and execution while supporting project teams through digital coordination, technical guidance, and construction technology integration. Your responsibilities will include:

  • Serve as a BIM/VDC ambassador within the organization and across assigned construction projects.

  • Lead, supervise, and mentor assigned VDC Coordinators, supporting their professional development and technical performance.

  • Organize and manage BIM/VDC processes, including the development and implementation of project-specific requirements, procedures, and schedules.

  • Contribute to the preparation of VDC budgets, coordination schedules, and resource assignments.

  • Provide training and technical support to promote the effective use of BIM/VDC tools and technologies.

  • Ensure project stakeholders have access to the latest 3D models, CAD files, and relevant digital documentation.

  • Create and manage in-house 3D models to support project pursuits, site logistics planning, design reviews, and trade coordination.

  • Compile multidisciplinary models, conduct clash detection, and perform constructability reviews to identify potential conflicts.

  • Use digital models to generate Requests for Information (RFIs) and help resolve design and construction challenges.

  • Organize and facilitate coordination meetings with designers, subcontractors, and other project stakeholders.

  • Support the preparation of coordination drawings, technical documents, and other project deliverables.

  • Produce model-based quantity take-offs, 4D simulations, virtual mock-ups, augmented reality models, and other visualization materials.

  • Assist project teams with construction coordination, scheduling, and shop drawing reviews.

  • Conduct site visits and participate in project meetings to provide BIM/VDC support.

  • Evaluate construction installations against digital models and recommend corrective actions when discrepancies or deviations occur.

  • Prepare as-built models, drawings, and other required BIM/VDC documentation.

  • Develop project-specific summary reports documenting coordination objectives, achievements, challenges, and lessons learned.

  • Participate in continuing education, research, and development initiatives to advance VDC methodologies and construction technologies.

  • Support the organization's Safety and Health Management System by following safe work practices, reporting potential hazards, participating in safety training, and helping eliminate risks within your area of responsibility.
