Document Controller
Job description
About the job Document ControllerTraceable, current, correct — every manual, every time.
Hi! We're Smartsourcing, and we're hiring a full-time, onsite Document Controller to keep a suite of operational manuals accurate, current, and under proper version control — the backbone of aviation compliance documentation.
Where? JEG Tower, Archbishop Reyes, Corner Acacia St., Barangay Kamputhaw, Cebu City, 6000 Cebu
About The Role
As a Document Controller, you'll safeguard the integrity, accuracy, and controlled management of a suite of operational manuals and supporting documentation that helps airline operators reach and maintain their Air Operator Certificate (AOC). You'll control document versions across the manual suite, keep libraries well-organised and accessible, and format lengthy technical documents to house standard — without ever altering their technical content. This isn't an authoring role: you're the one who keeps everything the directors, consultants, and contractors produce accurate, traceable, and up to date.
