Role overview

John Sisk & Son is a family-run construction business with operations across the globe, focused on delivering quality, reliability and value on every project while adopting new ideas and modern methods in construction.

The role is responsible for the organised handling, control and sharing of project and business documentation so that project teams, stakeholders and external parties always have access to accurate and current information. Working alongside project managers, design teams, consultants and subcontractors, the manager maintains disciplined records, manages version control and makes effective use of platforms such as Dalux, Viewpoint, client common data environments and other systems used on the project.

In addition to technical ownership, the role includes mentoring, troubleshooting and training support for the wider information management team. A key part of the job is to keep improving processes and digital workflows so the business remains aligned with current industry practice and innovation in information management.
