Job Description

Senior Document Controller

12 months initial Contract

Hybrid working (Predominantly remote with Team meetings onsite in Hull)

Are you a detail‑driven documentation specialist with a passion for clarity, quality, and process excellence? We're looking for a Senior Document Controller to take ownership of a critical business management system, ensuring documentation is accurate, compliant, and accessible across the organisation.

This is a fantastic opportunity for someone who thrives on structure, precision, and continuous improvement-while influencing how information is created, governed, and communicated.

About the Role

As Senior Document Controller, you'll be responsible for the full lifecycle of controlled documents within the organisation's management system. You'll partner closely with document owners, subject matter experts, and stakeholders across the business to rebuild, streamline, and maintain a world‑class documentation framework aligned to industry best practice.

Key Responsibilities

Lead the rebuild of the document management system, aligning it with the Energy Institute Process Safety Management framework.
Produce high‑quality controlled documents that meet internal formatting, specification, and compliance standards.
Edit and update existing materials to ensure consistency, clarity, and alignment with required standards.
Apply plain‑English and human‑factors editing to ensure documentation is accessible, easy to understand, and tailored to its users.
Conduct comprehensive quality checks, ensuring accuracy in grammar, spelling, technical content, and formatting.
Guide and support document owners through all BMS document processes-from creation to transition, change requests, removal, and scheduled review.
Publish approved documents within the management system, managing both digital and hard‑copy releases.
Communicate updates and revisions to registered key users.
Action and publish approved change requests in line with governance procedures.
Update and reproduce technical drawings when required.
Facilitate regular controlled document reviews, ensuring documents remain current and compliant.
Maintain complete audit trails and documentation records, ensuring robust traceability.

What We're Looking For

We'd love to hear from you if you have:

Strong experience in document control or document governance roles.
Exceptional attention to detail with a passion for producing clear, high‑quality content.
Experience working within structured management systems (BMS, QMS, SMS, etc.).
Confidence engaging stakeholders at all levels and guiding non‑technical users through established processes.
Strong organisational skills and the ability to manage multiple document streams simultaneously.
Experience with technical editing or plain‑English rewriting (highly desirable).
Familiarity with engineering, technical, or regulated environments (advantageous).
