BIM Recruitment
CADagency specialises in recruiting BIM professionals across architectural, building services and construction-led environments. We support practices, consultancies and contractors throughout the UK, supplying technically strong BIM professionals who understand coordinated, model-led project delivery.
Our experience spans BIM roles operating across both design and delivery stages. We work with businesses of all sizes, from smaller studios to large multidisciplinary firms, tailoring our recruitment approach to suit project type, team structure and digital maturity.
By taking time to understand how BIM functions within your organisation, we ensure candidates are aligned not only on software capability, but also on coordination responsibility, communication style and delivery expectations.
BIM Roles We Recruit For
We regularly recruit across a wide range of BIM-focused roles, including:
BIM Technicians
Model production specialists responsible for Revit model accuracy, data integrity and drawing outputs.
BIM Coordinators
Professionals overseeing model coordination, clash detection and multidisciplinary workflows.
BIM Managers
Senior roles focused on BIM standards, compliance, digital delivery and team oversight.
Most candidates we place work primarily within Revit, often alongside Navisworks and AutoCAD, with coordination and data management now forming a core part of most BIM roles.
2026 BIM Salary Insight
Based on data from the CADagency 2026 Employment Survey, average UK salaries for BIM roles currently sit as follows:
BIM Technicians: £33,200
BIM Coordinators: £42,600
Senior BIM Coordinators: £47,900
BIM Managers: £55,800
Salary progression within BIM is strongly linked to coordination responsibility, model ownership and involvement in multidisciplinary delivery rather than modelling alone.
London and the South East continue to offer the highest BIM salaries, particularly at coordinator and management level. However, regional hubs such as the Midlands, North West and Scotland have seen steady growth as BIM becomes standard practice across a wider range of projects.
Revit Roles and Salary Impact
Revit remains the dominant platform across BIM roles and continues to influence salary levels.
Professionals working primarily in Revit-based BIM roles reported higher average salaries than those using BIM tools in a more limited or transitional capacity. This reflects the ongoing shift away from hybrid CAD-only positions towards fully model-led workflows.
Navisworks experience is particularly valued at coordinator level, where clash detection, issue resolution and multidisciplinary communication form a significant part of the role.
BIM Market Trends
BIM adoption has continued to increase steadily over the past five years and is now embedded across much of the construction and design sector.
Expectations of BIM professionals have shifted. Employers are placing less emphasis on software knowledge alone and more on coordination ability, communication and confidence working across disciplines.
Hybrid working is now common within BIM roles, particularly at coordinator and management level. While fully remote positions remain limited, flexibility has become an expected part of most BIM teams.
There is also growing demand for BIM professionals who can bridge technical coordination with stakeholder engagement, supporting consultants, clients and internal teams rather than operating purely in production roles.
