Your Role

Our knowledge is our edge. Your job is to make sure it's actually usable.

You’ll own our knowledge and information management strategy end to end. That means building the system, setting governance, deploying an AI powered search platform, and getting people to actually use it. This isn't a policy role. You’ll dig into what teams actually need, build it, ship it, teach it and keep improving.

Your Day to Day

We don't want someone who audits boxes or waits for direction. We want someone who sees an opportunity, owns it, fixes it, and brings people along. You’re adaptable, curious and allergic to bureaucracy for its own sake.

What You’ll Do:

• Build and own Orbem's company wide knowledge management strategy

• Design a governance framework with clear ownership, review cycles, and content lifecycles

• Own our Enterprise Risk Management system, including the central risk register and supporting workflows

• Serve as business owner for Confluence and our AI enterprise search tool, managing roadmap, support, and vendor relationships

• Continuously tune the AI search platform for relevance and speed

• Define and track KPIs on content health, engagement, and efficiency

• Partner with IT to manage and expand integrations across tools

• Analyze search data to find and close knowledge gaps

• Automate content lifecycle processes: reminders, escalations, archiving

• Champion knowledge sharing culture across teams

• Create training and onboarding guides for our knowledge platform. Build the materials, teach the team, and make sure people actually use the system.

• Work with department leads to embed best practices into daily workflows

Fit to our values

• We own every challenge: we enjoy complexity and thrive under uncertainty

• We strive for better: we seize any opportunity for growth and challenge the status quo. We are constantly learning and improving

• We imagine new frontiers: we think beyond ‘doable’ and ‘reasonable’. We design a sustainable and healthy future together

Skills and Experience

• 2+ years in knowledge management, information architecture, or content strategy in a fast moving tech environment

• Expert Confluence (or similar tool) skills: architecture design, templates, permissions

• Hands on experience selecting, implementing, or optimizing AI search tools (Glean, SearchUnify, Coveo, or similar)

• Track record managing knowledge across decentralized systems (Hubspot, Jira, Google Drive, GitHub, etc.)

• Ability to define, track, and report on KPIs using search analytics and content audits

• Strong change management instincts. You know tech adoption is a people problem

• Excellent communicator who can influence without authority

• Strong project management skills. You can build training programs, run workshops, and get cross‑functional teams to actually adopt new tools and processes.

What makes you stand out from other candidates

• You’ve built a QMS or risk framework from scratch

• You’ve implemented GenAI solutions for documentation, process mapping, or content creation

• You know formal process mapping (BPMN or similar) and can diagram complex workflows
