Interim Document Controller
Location: Hybrid (1–2 days per week onsite on Dorset).
Day Rate: £250 Outside IR35
Contract: 6 months
We have an excellent opportunity for an experienced Document Controller to support a nationally recognised charity over the next six months. You'll be joining a high-profile digital transformation programme which is fast moving and needs a sharp, proactive Document Controller to take control of its governance, structure, and knowledge base.
What You’ll Do
* Lead consolidation of all programme and project documentation into a single, accessible repository (SharePoint).
* Define and implement governance – taxonomy, version control, naming conventions, and approval processes.
* Coach and train teams in how to store, manage, and retrieve documents effectively.
* Collaborate with PMO and project leads to embed your framework into daily operations.
* Enable success by ensuring every piece of information is where it should be - and easy to find.
What We’re Looking For
You’re organised, proactive, and thrive on untangling complexity. You don’t wait for instruction - you take initiative and make things happen.
Essential:
* Proven experience in document control or information management within complex programmes or portfolios.
* Strong hands-on experience with SharePoint (designing, structuring, and managing repositories).
* Confident setting up governance frameworks from scratch.
* Excellent communication skills - able to coach, influence, and bring people with you.
* A self-starter who’s as comfortable shaping strategy as rolling up their sleeves
