Job Description

Job Title: Document Controller

Location: London

Type: Permanent

Salary: up to £38,000 basic

We're working with a growing main contractor delivering a range of commercial, fit-out, refurbishment and residential projects across London. With a turnover of over £130M and a strong project pipeline heading into Q4 2025/2026, they're now looking to bring in a Document Controller to join their team on a permanent basis.

This is a company growth hire - not an urgent start - so ideal for someone who may be finishing up in their current role and looking for a long-term opportunity. The team are focused on hiring the right person to support the increasing workload across both pre-construction and live projects.

Key Responsibilities

• Manage and maintain document control systems and processes
• Ensure all project documentation is accurately stored, filed and distributed
• Support the project and design teams with document submissions, approvals and updates
• Maintain version control and ensure compliance with internal and client protocols
• Act as the point of contact for all document queries and updates
• Work closely with site teams, consultants and subcontractors to manage document flow
• Support with O&M manual compilation and handover documentation
• Help implement consistent processes across multiple projects as the business grows
  
  

What We're Looking For

• Previous experience working as a Document Controller in the construction industry
• Strong organisational skills and the ability to manage workload independently
• Excellent attention to detail and accuracy when handling technical documentation
• Clear, confident communication skills - this is key to succeeding in the role
• Collaborative approach - someone who enjoys working with others and supporting a team
• Proactive mindset with a high level of accountability
• Familiarity with document control systems (e.g. Viewpoint, Asite, Aconex or similar) is beneficial
  
  

What's On Offer

• Permanent position within a growing, forward-thinking main contractor
• Competitive salary and full benefits package
• Supportive team culture and clear career path
• Opportunity to help shape and improve internal systems
• Long-term stability and exposure to a wide mix of London-based projects
