Our document management is done by document controllers who are responsible for the timely, accurate and efficient preparation and management of documents.
What document controllers do
Document controllers are responsible for the numbering, filing, storing, sorting and retrieval of both electronic and hard copy documents. They work together with different technical teams, projects and layers of departments in their own and their client’s companies in order to manage all the documents.
Document management can be classified into junior, senior and lead document controllers. Each senior position is characterised by, for example, an increase in experience, seniority, ability to work independently and responsibilities. For instance, a lead of document management is always in charge of a project. When it comes to large projects, the team is further supplemented by several senior and junior document controllers.
Advantages of hiring
Our document controllers work from offices and sometimes from home on different projects. Occasionally they travel to domestic and international sites if their project requires them to.
Document management is essential when constructing large projects like on- or offshore wind parks, but also small projects. They ensure that the documentation flow is not disrupted and that the documents are where they need to be on time. This allows other project members, such as managers or coordinators, to concentrate on their own expertise. So all your projects run as efficiently as they possibly can.
Essential skills
Document controllers have strong IT skills in MS office. For instance, with Outlook, Excel and Word but also proficient typing skills. They are also highly organised, have good attention to detail and have the ability to multitask. Document controllers combine this with excellent communication skills in order to perform to the best of their abilities.
