Key Responsibilities: 
  • Manage and control project documentation in line with internal quality systems and customer requirements.

  • Support project teams with document handovers and milestone deliverables. 

  • Provide structured administrative support to engineering and project management teams. 

  • Support business administration activities including timesheets, onboarding documentation, purchase orders, invoices, expense submissions, and internal tracking. 

  • Prepare and maintain trackers, reports, and action logs to support project visibility. 

  • Support audits and governance by ensuring documentation is complete, accurate, and accessible. 

  • Assist with internal meetings, training coordination, team events, and occasional travel or logistics support. 

  • Identify opportunities to simplify and improve document and administrative workflows. 

 

Essential Qualifications: 
  • Previous experience in document control, administration, or project support, ideally within an engineering, manufacturing, construction, or project‑driven environment. 

  • Proven ability to manage structured documentation, registers, and revision control with a high level of accuracy. 

  • Strong organisational skills and attention to detail, with the ability to manage multiple tasks and priorities. 

  • Clear and confident communication skills, including interaction with internal teams and external customers. 

  • Proficiency in Microsoft 365 Office tools (Excel, Outlook, Teams, SharePoint); familiarity with Microsoft Project is a plus but not required. 

  • Comfortable working within defined processes, governance, and quality standards. 

  • Ability to work independently, take ownership of outcomes, and adapt quickly in a dynamic environment. 

  • HNC/HND or equivalent experience is beneficial but not essential. 

  • Fluency in English is required. 

 

What We Offer:
