Overview

You will be working within the Knowledge Management (KM) team supporting the function initiatives. The team consists of 3 full time personnel who are responsible for connecting content to people, tools to people and people to people, to make projects and business development (BD) activities more effective and efficient.

Our knowledge content includes project documentation, templates, benchmarking data (e.g. pricing information), structured data (supplier / spend data / taxonomies), research and BD materials (CVs / Case studies / Credentials).

Key responsibilities include:

  • Collection and storage of key project content, including Business development materials, Benchmarking information, Lessons Learned, and other project deliverables – this is a core element of the role

  • Maintaining best-of business development decks by proactively adding new credentials and case studies
  • Coordinating with the team to develop quarterly Knowledge newsletters and other communications
  • Working closely with Subject Matter Expert (SME) communities to maintain up-to-date content on their SharePoint communication sites

Please note the role described above is not exhaustive but provides a good indication of what is expected of the candidate – the scope will evolve with the needs of our business and our knowledge organisation.
