The energy sector is undergoing a dynamic transformation—driven by increasing demand, evolving regulations, ambitious carbon reduction goals, and rapid technological innovation. This is an exciting time to be part of an industry shaping a more sustainable and resilient future.
If you’re passionate about making a meaningful impact, this is your opportunity to join a growing Energy team at the forefront of change. We are looking for a Senior Document Controller to support high-profile, complex projects across the UK.
About the Role
As a Senior Document Controller, you will play a central role within our PMO Information Management team, ensuring the effective and secure management of project information within a Common Data Environment (CDE).
You will be responsible for maintaining the flow, accuracy, and accessibility of documentation across projects, supporting teams to work efficiently and in line with industry standards. This includes managing the Master Information Delivery Plan, overseeing document approvals within platforms such as SharePoint and Autodesk Construction Cloud (ACC), and ensuring that all project information is properly controlled and up to date.
Your role will also involve handling sensitive and confidential information with care, ensuring compliance with GDPR, legal privilege requirements, and other regulatory standards.

Your management of documentation and data will help maintain strong governance across projects, reducing risk and supporting compliance with both client and industry requirements.
By maintaining robust processes within the Common Data Environment, you will facilitate seamless collaboration between multidisciplinary teams, ensuring everyone is working from a single source of truth. Your careful handling of sensitive information will help safeguard both the organisation and its clients, while your support for audits and information requests will reinforce transparency and accountability.
Through your contribution to BIM and digital engineering practices, you will help embed best-in-class information management standards, ultimately improving project performance and supporting the delivery of complex energy infrastructure.
