Working Pattern: Full-time, fully office based

The Opportunity
We are working with a well-established and growing main contractor that is expanding its North East operation and is looking to appoint an Assistant Document Controller / Administrator to join their North East office.
This is an excellent opportunity for someone with existing construction administration experience who is looking to develop their career within Document Control.
The role will be a varied position, combining Document Control, general administration and reception duties, providing the successful candidate with valuable exposure to the wider construction environment and a clear opportunity to progress into a fully-fledged Document Controller position.
The Role
Working as part of the regional office team, you will provide day-to-day administrative and document control support to the wider construction and project teams.
Your responsibilities will include:
* Assisting with the management and distribution of project documentation
* Maintaining accurate document registers and filing systems
* Uploading, issuing and tracking project documentation

* Assisting with reports, spreadsheets and project records
* Answering incoming calls and dealing with general enquiries
* Meeting and greeting visitors to the office
* Managing reception and maintaining a professional front-of-house environment
* Supporting the wider office team with ad-hoc administrative requirements
As your experience develops, you will be given greater responsibility across the Document Control function, with the opportunity to progress into a dedicated Document Controller position.
About You
We are ideally looking for someone who already has experience working within a construction company or construction-related environment.

* Excellent organisation and attention to detail
* Good IT skills, particularly Microsoft Office
* Strong communication skills
* A professional and approachable manner
* The ability to manage multiple tasks and prioritise effectively
* A willingness to learn and develop
* A positive, team-focused attitude
Previous experience using construction document management systems would be advantageous but is not essential.

You will gain hands-on experience supporting live construction projects while working alongside experienced project and commercial teams, giving you the foundations needed to progress into a full Document Controller role.
