Job Title: Information Liaison (Document Controller) – Maternity Cover

Service Area: SHEQ & Transformation, IM&T

Hours of Work: 37 Per week

What You’ll be doing:

As an Information Liaison, you’ll be a key contributor within the Base Information Management Team, supporting the effective handling of digital documents across working, published, and archived stores. You’ll provide expert guidance to teams across KBS Maritime, helping them manage their information in line with industry best practice. From processing digital content into the KBS Common Data Model (CDM) to maintaining metadata quality and supporting document control, your work will help protect critical asset documentation and ensure compliance with defined policies.

You’ll collaborate closely with stakeholders, building trusted relationships with information owners, stewards, and users to centralise unstructured data and embed best practice across the organisation. You’ll also advise teams on documentation requirements, support quality assurance activities, and ensure information security standards are met, especially when documents are shared externally. Furthermore, this role will be vital in driving consistency, improving data integrity, and enabling smarter information management across the business.

You’ll Have:

You’ll bring hands-on experience with document management tools like SharePoint and have previously worked as a Document Controller in facilities management or construction environments using modern, BIM19650-compliant systems. Your understanding of documentation standards (particularly ISO19650) will enable you to apply best practice methodologies confidently across varied information sets.

Alongside your technical expertise, you’ll be skilled in providing advice and support to both internal teams and clients on all aspects of documentation management. Proficiency in Excel and Word will support your day-to-day tasks, while your ability to manage metadata, ensure data integrity, and navigate complex systems will make you a trusted resource in driving effective information governance.

About you:

As a confident and approachable professional, you’ll build rapport easily and take time to explain technical requirements clearly. By applying procedures with flexibility, you’ll communicate with clarity, and actively listen to others, creating strong, respectful relationships across teams. With a keen analytical mindset and an organised approach to planning, you remain composed under pressure and consistently drive for improvement, even when faced with challenges. Also, your initiative and alignment with company values make you a trusted and influential presence in the workplace.

Additionally, you’ll be comfortable working independently and can confidently challenge non-conformance when needed. With understanding of the long-term vision for asset data management, you’ll contribute to its delivery by modelling best practices and helping others adopt them.

You’ll get:

  • A competitive salary

  • 25 days holiday plus bank holidays (pro rata’d dependant on successful start date)

  • Enhanced pension scheme

  • Life assurance

  • Access to our internal benefits and discounts programme for all colleagues

  • Cycle to work scheme

How Many Cyber Security Tools Do You Need to Know to Get a Cyber Security Job?

If you are trying to build or move forward in a cyber security career, it can feel like the list of tools you are expected to know never ends. One job advert asks for SIEM platforms, another mentions penetration testing tools, another lists cloud security, threat intelligence platforms, endpoint detection, scripting languages and compliance frameworks. Scroll LinkedIn and it gets worse. Everyone seems to “know” dozens of tools, certifications and platforms. Here is the reality most cyber security hiring managers agree on: they are not hiring you because you know every tool. They are hiring you because you understand risk, can think like an attacker and a defender, follow process, communicate clearly and make good decisions under pressure. Tools matter — but only when they support those outcomes. So how many cyber security tools do you actually need to know to get a job? For most job seekers, the answer is far fewer than you think. This article explains what employers really expect, which tools are essential, which are role-specific and how to focus your learning so you look credible, not overwhelmed.

The Skills Gap in Cyber Security Jobs: What Universities Aren’t Teaching

Cyber security has become one of the most critical disciplines in the modern economy. From protecting financial systems and healthcare data to securing national infrastructure, cloud platforms and supply chains, cyber security professionals now sit at the frontline of digital trust. Demand for cyber security talent in the UK has surged. Job vacancies remain high, salaries continue to rise, and organisations across every sector report difficulty hiring skilled professionals. Yet despite this demand, many graduates struggle to break into cyber security roles and employers consistently report that candidates are not job-ready. The problem is not intelligence, ambition or academic effort. It is a persistent and widening skills gap between university education and real-world cyber security work. This article explores that gap in depth: what universities teach well, what they routinely miss, why the gap exists, what employers actually want, and how jobseekers can bridge the divide to build sustainable careers in cyber security.
