About you * Previous experience as a Document Controller, Project Document Controller, Engineering Document Controller, Site Document Controller, Technical Administrator or Project Administrator. * Experience managing engineering drawings, technical documents, revisions and approval workflows. * A good understanding of Electronic Document Management Systems and Common Data Environments. * Strong attention to detail and a methodical, organised approach. * Good Microsoft Office skills, particularly Excel, Word and Outlook. * The confidence to communicate with project managers, engineers, clients and subcontractors. * The ability to manage multiple priorities and maintain accurate records across several projects. * Previous experience using Asite would be highly beneficial, although applications are also welcomed from experienced document controllers who have used other recognised EDMS or Common Data Environment platforms. * Experience with Autodesk Construction Cloud (ACC), Autodesk Docs or BIM 360 would be beneficial but is not essential. * Experience within water, wastewater, utilities, infrastructure, construction, civil engineering, mechanical and electrical engineering or the wider MEICA sector would also be advantageous.
