You'll work closely with project teams and quality assurance, translating raw information into structured, findable, and compliant records that the colleagues use to make daily decisions and keep things running smoothly. if you're not on top of things, projects can grind to a halt because people can't find the right drawing or the latest specification. When this role is done well, the teams can quickly find the information they need, audits are a breeze, and the team avoid costly mistakes from using outdated documents. When it's not, you're looking at project delays, potential regulatory fines, and a lot of frustrated colleagues. The work can involve balancing strict adherence to process with the need to support fast-moving teams who sometimes want to cut corners. One part of the role is knowing you're the guardian of the intellectual property and ensuring everyone has the right information at the right time. View

Day-to-day, you'll be the one making sure everything from client contracts to internal policies is where it should be, tagged correctly, and easy for anyone to find when they need it. You sit within how the team manage information, making sure the colleagues can do their jobs without endless searching. View
- Global Head of Knowledge Management As a Global Head of Knowledge Management (at this level, think 'Lead Specialist for a Global Domain'), you'll take ownership of specific knowledge areas, making sure the global teams have easy access to the information they need to do their jobs well. This means you'll be building, curating, and improving content, often for a particular product, region, or function.

You'll work at the intersection of the content creators and the people who actually use that knowledge, translating raw information into clear, actionable resources that the teams use to make decisions and serve customers.

When it's not quite right, people get frustrated, make mistakes, and the team lose valuable time.

- Information Compliance Manager The Information Compliance Manager here is all about making sure the knowledge—the stuff that makes the team tick—is handled properly, legally, and ethically. You'll independently manage the day-to-day compliance processes, like handling requests from people wanting to see their data (DSARs) and making sure the internal audits run smoothly. This role sits within the Knowledge Management team, bridging the gap between what the business needs to share and what the law says the team can or can't do. You'll translate complex regulations into practical steps for the teams. When you do this well, the team avoid hefty fines, protect the customers' trust, and keep the intellectual property secure. If things go sideways, the team could face serious legal trouble, reputational damage, and a real mess.

People won't be recreating work that already exists, and the global operations will run much smoother. If it's not done properly, the team end up with 'content rot', outdated, conflicting information that frustrates everyone and slows the team down. This can involve getting busy people to follow the rules and understand why a good information structure actually matters. One part of the role is you get to build a genuinely smarter, more efficient organisation, seeing your work directly improve how colleagues across different countries operate. View

When this role is done well, the teams spend less time searching for answers and more time delivering value. When it's not, people get frustrated, make mistakes, and the team lose valuable time and money. The work can involve often convincing busy experts to share their knowledge and then making sure it's structured in a way that makes sense to everyone else. The reward is seeing your work directly improve team efficiency and contribute to a smarter, more connected company. View
- Taxonomist As a Taxonomist, you'll own and manage specific parts of the enterprise taxonomy, making sure the digital content is structured logically and consistently. This directly impacts how quickly the colleagues find what they need, which saves everyone a lot of headaches and wasted time. You'll sit right between the content creators and the folks who build the search tools, translating complex business concepts into clear, usable categories that the systems can actually understand. When you do this well, people find information instantly, the search results are appropriate, and the content feels intuitive. Get it wrong, and people will spend ages hunting for documents, or worse, give up and recreate work that already exists. This can involve getting everyone to agree on what things should be called, especially when different teams have their own jargon. One part of the role is seeing your work genuinely improve how thousands of people interact with the knowledge every single day. View
