Job Description

At Mott MacDonald, we believe every project is an opportunity to improve society. As a wholly employee-owned business, we're committed to creating outcomes that benefit our clients, communities, and the environment.

As a Graduate Information Manager working on Defence projects, you'll help shape the future of digital delivery within our engineering teams, supporting projects that improve connectivity, strengthen communities, and create more sustainable places to live and work.

This is an exciting opportunity to combine your passion for digital engineering, Building Information Modelling (BIM), and data management with meaningful projects that make a positive difference to society. You'll work alongside engineers, digital specialists, and project teams to ensure that information is managed effectively throughout the entire project lifecycle, helping to create smarter, safer, and more efficient infrastructure.

The Opportunity

Please note that this role will involve working on Defence projects.

Digital information sits at the heart of modern engineering and construction. As projects become increasingly complex, effective information management and BIM are essential to delivering high-quality, coordinated, and sustainable solutions.

As a Graduate Information Manager, you'll join a collaborative and supportive team where you'll learn from experienced professionals while developing your technical, digital, and communication skills. You'll gain exposure to a variety of infrastructure and multi discipline engineering projects, helping teams harness the power of data and digital technology to achieve better outcomes for clients and communities.

From your first day, you'll be encouraged to contribute ideas, take ownership of your development, and build the confidence needed to become a future leader in digital delivery.

What You'll Do

As part of our multidisciplinary structural engineering and digital delivery teams, you will:

  • Support the implementation of BIM and information management processes across a range of projects.
  • Assist with the management, coordination, and validation of project information and digital deliverables.
  • Help maintain Common Data Environments (CDEs) and ensure project information is accurate, accessible, and compliant with agreed standards.
  • Support project teams in applying information management principles and BIM best practice.
  • Contribute to the development and delivery of BIM Execution Plans, information standards, and project workflows.
  • Assist with digital coordination activities and model reviews across multidisciplinary teams.
  • Support the production of project reports, dashboards, and data-driven insights that enable informed decision making.
  • Work with engineers, designers, project managers, and digital specialists to improve project delivery and collaboration.
  • Explore emerging technologies, digital tools, and innovative approaches that support improved engineering outcomes.
  • Participate in project meetings, workshops, and knowledge-sharing activities to build your professional network and understanding of the wider industry.

Why This Role Matters

Information is one of the most valuable assets within any project. When managed effectively, it improves collaboration, reduces risk, enhances quality, and supports better decisions throughout the lifecycle of an asset.

As a Graduate Information Manager, your work will help:

  • Improve the quality and efficiency of project delivery.
  • Support sustainable and resilient infrastructure development.
  • Enable better collaboration across multidisciplinary teams.
  • Reduce waste and improve project outcomes through effective digital delivery.
  • Create reliable information that supports long-term asset performance and management.
  • Deliver value for clients, communities, and future generations.

You'll play a key role in helping our teams transform data into meaningful outcomes that improve society.
