Job Openings Document Controller

About the job Document Controller

Traceable, 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. It's a role for someone exceptionally detail-oriented and highly organised, with the written comprehension to control complex documents with confidence.

Key Responsibilities

Document Control & Version Management

  • Control the versions of all manuals and supporting documentation across the suite
  • Ensure documents are current, correctly numbered, traceable, and issued under proper version control

Manual & AOC Documentation Support

  • Support the preparation, maintenance, and control of the manual suite required for Air Operator Certificate (AOC) readiness and ongoing compliance

Document Formatting & Presentation Control

  • Check, format, and standardise received documents — including lengthy technical documents with graphics, tables, and cross-references — to ensure consistency with house style and controlled-document standards, without altering their technical content

Document Library & Records Management

  • Maintain accurate, well-organised document libraries (e.g. SharePoint, Microsoft 365), ensuring correct storage, access control, and retrieval of controlled records
  • Stakeholder Coordination & Communication
  • Coordinate with directors, consultants, and contractors regarding document requests, revisions, approvals, and version updates

Quality, Accuracy & Process Compliance

  • Ensure adherence to established documentation standards, version-control procedures, and confidentiality requirements across all controlled documents

Artificial Intelligence (AI) Readiness and Digital Enablement

  • Maintain baseline AI literacy and use approved AI tools responsibly, in line with company policies, data privacy, information security, and client confidentiality obligations
  • Apply sound judgment by validating outputs and avoiding overreliance, ensuring accuracy and accountability in all work delivered
  • Participate in AI readiness trainings and proactively identify opportunities for process improvement through automation and responsible AI integration


What You'll Need to Succeed

Experience

  • Demonstrated experience in document control and version management
  • Experience maintaining document libraries (e.g. SharePoint, Microsoft 365) highly desirable
  • Background or experience in the architecture field advantageous

Skills & Behaviours

  • Exceptional attention to detail and a highly organised approach
  • Excellent written communication and comprehension, including the ability to understand and control lengthy documents containing graphics, tables, and technical content
  • Awareness of document control and version-control standards, client confidentiality, and data privacy obligations
  • Exposure to aviation / AOC documentation advantageous

Education & Certifications

  • Bachelor's degree in a relevant field preferred
  • Document control or records management certification a plus

Tools

  • Advanced Microsoft Word — essential
  • Document library platforms such as SharePoint and Microsoft 365
