Information Management Specialist

Te Whiwhinga mahi | The Opportunity  
 

This is a cross-functional specialist role with end-to-end ownership of information management across major projects, from early development through to handover into Operations. 

You’ll operate as a trusted partner across engineering, projects, and readiness teams, with accountability for how information is structured, governed, and ultimately used. 

In this role, you will: 

• Own and lead information management within Operational Readiness, aligning closely with Project Integration objectives across the full project lifecycle. 

• Ensure project data received from consultants, contractors, and suppliers is complete, accurate, compliant, and fit for purpose at handover. 

• Shape and continuously improve information management processes so they work in practice, not just on paper. 

• Act as a key connector between project engineering, document management, SAP maintenance data, quality, and asset owners. 

• Influence how contractors and internal teams manage data, providing guidance, clarity, and practical training where needed. 

• Monitor information readiness, track progress, and escalate risks early to protect project outcomes. 

• Contribute to lessons learned and help refine Contact’s information management standards for future hinonga (projects). 

While this role does not have formal people leadership, it carries significant influence and accountability, requiring confidence to set expectations, navigate ambiguity, and bring others on the journey.
