Whether you’ve got deep experience in commercial real estate, skilled trades or technology, or you’re looking to apply your relevant experience to a new industry, join our team as we help shape a brighter way forward.

Purpose:

We are looking for a Document Controller to manage project documentation on site for the PMC team, so that all drawings, submittals, correspondence and records are controlled, traceable and current for the Client, Contractor and wider project team.

  • Maintain up-to-date registers (drawings, submittals, RFIs, correspondence, meeting minutes, action logs) and issue regular status reports.
  • Ensure only current approved revisions are in use on site, and withdraw superseded documents.
  • Support the PMC team in preparing and distributing meeting minutes, progress reports and handover documentation (O&M manuals, as-builts, test and commissioning records).
  • Support audits and QA/QC reviews by keeping records complete, auditable and retrievable.
  • Handle project information in line with confidentiality and information classification requirements.

Requirements:

  • Diploma or degree in a relevant field, or equivalent experience.
  • 5+ years’ document control experience on construction or infrastructure projects, ideally with a PMC or consultancy.

  • Strong working knowledge of construction documentation workflows (submittals, RFIs, transmittals, as-builts).
  • Proficient in MS Office, especially Excel.
  • Excellent attention to detail, organisation and written English.

Desirable:

  • Experience on large-scale or mission-critical projects such as data centers.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
