  • Intake & Workflow Management: Utilize Jira to manage request intake, groom user stories, and ensure alignment across initiatives and policies. Participate in team and stakeholder discussions to ensure clear expectations and "Definition of Ready" for document revisions.

  • Content & System Management: Maintain the integrity of our document repositories and manage content publication across internal and external portals, ensuring brand consistency and accuracy.

  • Strategic Collaboration: Serve as a thought partner to internal SMEs and communicate proactively with stakeholders to ensure all messaging tells a compelling, accurate story regarding business priorities and participant requirements.

  • Compliance & Audit: Support internal audit requirements by providing evidence for process builds, maintaining procedure documentation, and executing control testing to support the broader NetDocs operational framework.
