Our commitment to exploration, impact and community creates enduring, forward‑thinking outcomes, unlocking humanity’s highest potential. With a global design culture devoted to creativity, resilience, and purpose – we ensure every project contributes to our client’s vision, inspiring future generations. Woods Bagot is part of the 7C Network.

About the Role The Group Design Technology Specialist role sits within 7C’s global Design Technology team, focused on connecting design practice with technology capability at scale. The role operates at the intersection of studio-led design delivery and group-level technology development. Working in close collaboration with both studio level DT staff and the global team, the role provides a clear line of sight between day-to-day project delivery and the evolution of global design technology platforms, tools, and workflows. It plays an important role in ensuring that technology initiatives are informed by real practice needs and are practical, relevant, and adopted effectively across the studio network. With a strong emphasis on translation, validation, and enablement, the role contributes to shaping global design technology strategy by gaining insight from across the practice and helping ensure that global DT initiatives have a meaningful impact on the work of our project teams. Key Areas of Responsibility: Engage with studio Design Technology teams to understand studio priorities, risks, and capability needs, and identify cross-studio trends and recurring issues. Act as a conduit between studios and the global Design Technology team, ensuring studio insights inform global strategy and initiatives. Validate global tools, workflows, and standards against real project conditions, supporting pilots and phased rollouts where required. Contribute to global initiatives, including training agendas, workflow guidance, best practice documentation, and shared knowledge resources. Support consistent and effective adoption of design technology across studios, focusing on long-term capability rather than ongoing support. Maintain strong practical expertise in relevant design technologies to support informed judgement and quality improvement. Provide targeted expert intervention on critical projects in exceptional circumstances, with learning captured and fed back into practice-wide improvement. Contribute to nominated strategic initiatives, communities of practice, and multi-studio collaboration that strengthen design technology capability across 7C. Represent 7C in the wider industry through attending and speaking at external events. About You You are comfortable operating at the intersection of design, technology, and delivery, and are able to influence outcomes with autonomy. You can build credibility with Studio Leaders and designers while collaborating effectively with highly technical specialists. You think systemically, are structured in how you approach ambiguous problems, and are focused on outcomes and adoption rather than tools alone. You know when to go deep technically and when to step back to patterns, priorities, and strategic implications. Required Experience and Skills: 7 years’ experience working in design technology roles within an architectural or multidisciplinary design practice, including involvement in complex or large-scale projects. Strong practical knowledge of digital project delivery practices, standards, and techniques, with experience applying these in live project environments. Advanced hands-on capability in one or more core BIM and design technology platforms, such as Autodesk Revit, Navisworks, Rhino, Grasshopper, Dynamo, or equivalent tools relevant to 7C workflows. Demonstrated ability to develop flexible and agile modelling or workflow solutions to support iterative design and project delivery processes. Experience translating design and project needs into clear technical or functional requirements for specialist teams, including developers, computational designers, or platform and content teams. Experience supporting the rollout, adoption, or quality assurance of tools, workflows, standards, or methodologies at studio or practice scale. Ability to operate with a high degree of autonomy, manage competing priorities, and exercise sound judgement in complex or ambiguous situations. Strong written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to document workflows, articulate technical concepts clearly, and work effectively across both design and technology audiences. Ability to communicate effectively with senior leadership and stakeholders, understanding and aligning with their perspectives and motivations.
