We are recruiting for an experienced Document Controller to join a major facilities and infrastructure project at a secure establishment in North West London.

This is an excellent opportunity for an organised, technically minded individual with strong document control, asset management and data administration experience to support an important programme of asset verification and project handover.

Working closely with the Asset Manager and wider project team, you'll play a key role in ensuring that asset information is accurately recorded, verified and maintained across a large and complex estate.

The initial contract is expected to run for approximately nine months, with potential for an extension or longer-term opportunities.

The Role

Your responsibilities will include:

• Maintaining, updating and verifying asset records across information management systems, databases and Computer-Aided Facilities Management (CAFM) software.

• Supporting a large-scale asset verification programme, ensuring asset data is accurate, complete and ready for handover.

• Managing technical documentation, asset registers and electronic filing systems.

• Supporting the handover of asset information, including maintenance schedules, planned preventative maintenance (PPM) records, spare parts information and associated documentation.

• Reviewing and validating asset data relating to mechanical, electrical, building fabric and statutory maintenance requirements.

• Producing reports, dashboards and management information using Excel and other data management systems.

• Identifying discrepancies, missing information and potential risks relating to data accuracy and integrity.

• Supporting technical compliance checks, contractual audits and asset management reporting.

• Liaising with engineers, facilities teams, subcontractors and other stakeholders to obtain and verify information.

• Ensuring documentation and records meet project, contractual and information governance requirements.

About You

We are looking for someone with strong data management skills, excellent attention to detail and the ability to work confidently with technical information.

Ideally, you will have:

• Previous experience in document control, technical data management, asset management administration or a similar role.

• Current SC (Security Check) clearance - essential.

• Advanced Microsoft Excel skills, including manipulating, validating and reporting on large datasets.

• Experience using CAFM systems, ideally Concept Evolution or similar.

• Familiarity with asset capture or verification software, such as Mobiess, would be advantageous.

• Experience maintaining asset registers, technical records, compliance documentation or maintenance information.

• Strong numerical, analytical and problem-solving skills.

• Excellent organisational skills and the ability to manage multiple tasks and deadlines.

• Good communication skills and the confidence to work with technical and non-technical stakeholders.

• A proactive approach, with the ability to work independently as well as part of a wider team.

A Level 4 or higher technical or numerically focused qualification would be beneficial.

Previous experience within facilities management, building services, engineering, construction or defence-related infrastructure would be particularly relevant.

What's on Offer?

• Approximately nine months of contract work.

• Potential for an extension or longer-term employment opportunities, subject to business requirements.

• The opportunity to work on a substantial asset management and handover programme.

• A varied role combining document control, technical data management and asset verification.

• The opportunity to work alongside experienced engineering and facilities management professionals.
