Work with ICT management to ensure all documents are current, approved, and clearly communicated.
Maintain an organised and accessible ICT documentation library, ensuring consistency of format, terminology, and ownership.
Implement processes for regular reviews and audits of documentation.
Assist with maintaining an accurate and up-to-date asset register including records of applications, infrastructure, and hardware assets, including dependencies, integrations, and data flows.
Support the identification and tracking of ICT risks, controls, and mitigations and work closely with the Corporate Governance team to ensure alignment with the Council's corporate risk framework.
Collate evidence and documentation to support internal and external audits (e.g., PSN, cyber security, data protection, and business continuity reviews).
Monitor compliance with ICT standards, policies, and procedures, escalating non-conformance as appropriate.

Experience in ICT, compliance, or information governance roles within a complex technical environment.
