  • Strong skills in 3D modelling (Revit, ArchiCAD, or similar), visualisation tools (Lumion, Twinmotion, etc.), and animation/post-production software (Adobe Creative Cloud).
  • Experience with 4D planning tools (Synchro Pro or similar) and model-based quantification (NRM1).
  • Great communication skills and a collaborative, solutions-focused mindset.
  • Ability to work both independently and as part of a team, managing deadlines effectively.
