Job Description

Document Controller for High Voltage Cabling Project in Scotland

Location: East Coast of Scotland

Start Date: ASAP

Duration: Project runs through to 2029

Rate: £320/day INSIDE IR35 through an umbrella company

We are seeking a highly motivated and experienced Document Controller to join our team on a high voltage cabling project based on the east coast of Scotland. This is a long-term project running through to 2029, offering a unique opportunity to be part of a significant infrastructure development.

Key Responsibilities:

1. Manage and oversee the entire document control process for the project.
2. Implement and maintain effective processes and procedures for document control.
3. Manage documentation flow up to the client and down to subcontractors.
4. Work closely with project teams to ensure all documentation is accurately tracked and maintained.
5. Oversee a Document Control Assistant once that role becomes available.
6. Ensure compliance with all relevant standards and regulations.

Key Experience Required:

• Proficient in SharePoint and Microsoft Office packages.
• Previous experience in a similar role within the construction or engineering industry.
• Ability to manually track tasks without an Electronic Document Management System (EDMS) — note that the client does not have an EDMS, and all tasks are manually tracked.
• Strong organisational skills and attention to detail.
• Excellent communication skills and the ability to work effectively with both clients and subcontractors.
• Experience in implementing and managing document control processes.

Interview Process:

Interviews will be conducted via Microsoft Teams. We are flexible with interview dates but are unavailable on the 7th, 8th, and 9th of April.

About You:

The ideal candidate will be ready for a challenge and capable of taking full ownership of the document control process. You should be comfortable with the substantial amount of work required and have the ability to implement processes and procedures effectively. This role is not suitable for someone who prefers working directly with the end client, as it involves managing documentation both up the line to the client and down the line to subcontractors.

Application Process:

To apply, please submit your CV outlining your relevant experience and why you are the ideal candidate for this position. We look forward to hearing from you and potentially welcoming you to our team on this exciting project!

Equal Opportunities:

We are committed to creating a diverse and inclusive workplace. We encourage applications from all qualified individuals regardless of religion/belief, race, gender, or other characteristics.
