Job Title: Programme Director – Digital Twin & Real-Time Platform
Location: London
Working Arrangement: Hybrid (3 Days Onsite Per Week)

About the Company

We’re working with a design and technology studio that specialises in large-scale digital delivery across infrastructure, planning, and real-time platforms. Their projects combine spatial data, interactive visualisation, and platform engineering to help clients plan, explore, and manage complex environments in more intuitive and connected ways.

They’re leading a multi-year programme to build a centralised digital twin platform for a major Middle Eastern destination, bringing together infrastructure data, spatial planning, and interactive 3D environments.

The Opportunity

The programme consists of multiple workstreams, each contributing to a real-time, web-based platform that gives the client control over spatial planning data, development models, and engagement tools.

Key workstreams include:

*

BIM and CAD data integration to consolidate infrastructure models

*

Real-time 3D environment development using Unreal Engine

*

A visual interface for non-technical users to explore planning data and interact with site features

*

Asset management tools and future scenario mapping capability

Each workstream has its dedicated project lead. The Programme Director will manage the structure, direction, and day-to-day coordination of the programme as a whole—holding the strategic line while keeping delivery on track.

What You’ll Be Doing

Programme Oversight

*

Operate as the lead Programme Director across the entire digital twin initiative.

*

Align project teams working on BIM, real-time visualisation, and user-facing features

*

Drive programme-wide planning, coordination, and communication between streams.

Governance & Workflow

*

Set up and run programme governance across schedules, risk tracking, and interdependencies.

*

Maintain visibility across teams—flagging blockers, surfacing decisions, and pushing for resolution when needed

*

Map out integration points and keep workstreams aligned with the platform's end-state requirements

Technical Coordination

*

Collaborate with technical leads across BIM, Unreal Engine, and data teams to keep workflows clean and scalable

*

Translate platform goals into actionable plans that work across disciplines

*

Make sure data structures, tooling, and output formats align across the programme

Stakeholder Management

*

Lead programme-level discussions with client teams, partners, and senior leadership

*

Keep stakeholders focused on priorities while managing expectations and surfacing challenges early

*

Provide structured reporting and guidance on progress, risk, and outcomes

Commercial Responsibility

*

Track overall programme budget and financial reporting

*

Work with internal leads and external delivery partners to maintain cost visibility

*

Adjust plans and resourcing in response to shifting priorities or constraints

What They’re Looking For

*

Proven experience as a Programme Director leading large-scale, technically complex digital platforms

*

Confident in managing multiple project leads and delivery teams across related streams

*

Comfortable working with technical and non-technical stakeholders

*

Structured in approach, with a clear view of planning, coordination, and risk tracking

*

Knowledge of BIM, CAD, and spatial data workflows would be highly advantageous

Why This Role?

*

Shape a landmark digital twin platform – A chance to lead a major real-time spatial initiative with a wide impact

*

Work at the intersection of infrastructure and digital delivery – Combine data, visualisation, and systems into one integrated programme

*

Top-level role – As Programme Director, you’ll guide structure, pace, and outcomes across multiple moving parts

*

Grown-up working environment – You’ll have control without being micromanaged and clear delivery goals without chaos

*

Solid team and culture – Generous annual leave, learning budget, gym membership, and a senior team who understand what good delivery needs to look like

If you’re a Programme Director with experience in BIM, digital infrastructure, or real-time platforms and are confident managing multi-track technical delivery, this is your opportunity to lead something with long-term value.
