• Monitor drawing revisions and keep project records up to date
• Issue project correspondence and technical information
• Support Design Managers and project teams with document control

• Strong organisation and attention to detail
• Clear written and verbal communication
• Confidence dealing with project teams and external contacts
• A willingness to learn new systems and document control processes
• An interest in construction drawings, technical information or design management
