About this opportunity
We are seeking a Senior Document Controller to work within Gleeds Information Management business unit, working across a diverse portfolio of clients and sectors. The successful candidate will bring established document control expertise into a team that operates at the intersection of document management and ISO 19650 information management — giving this role a broader scope and greater influence than a conventional DC position.
This is a role suited to an individual who takes pride in rigour and consistency, but who also wants to shape how document control is delivered — contributing to the development of standards, processes, and client offerings as the service grows within the BU.
This individual can be based from our central Birmingham or central Nottingham office.
What Set's This Role Apart
Document control at Gleeds sits within an Information Management team that is fluent in ISO 19650, BIM delivery, and digital information strategy. This means the successful candidate will work on commissions where document control and information management are genuinely integrated — not siloed — and where their expertise directly informs how projects manage and exchange information.
The variety is real: the BU works across sectors including education, government, defence, and commercial development, with clients ranging from public sector frameworks to major private programmes. No two commissions are the same, and the expectation is that the Senior Document Controller will bring consistency of approach while adapting to the specific needs of each client and programme.
For the right person, this is also an opportunity to shape something — to help define what a Gleeds document control service looks like, and to build a reputation in a field where strong, senior DC professionals are genuinely scarce.
Responsibilities include but are not limited to:
Document Control — Core Delivery
As a Gleeds team member, you will have access to:
- Opportunities to develop and grow your career
- A contributory pension scheme
- Employee Assistance Programme
- Our Global Travel Scholarship Programme
- Flexible working arrangements
