Our client is an established UK-based health tech business providing mission-critical systems that support operational and clinical environments. They are seeking a Documentation & SharePoint Specialist to take ownership of documentation across a large-scale healthcare platform, ensuring that knowledge resources remain accurate, controlled and aligned with evolving system releases.
You will manage and maintain a comprehensive online knowledge base, collating and preparing documentation ahead of publication and ensuring version control across live and test environments. Working closely with technical, support and operational teams, you will translate complex system processes — including database relationships, background services and configuration logic — into clear, structured guidance accessible to both technical and non-technical healthcare users.
Alongside documentation ownership, you will design, implement and support SharePoint solutions across the organisation. This includes customising SharePoint features in line with business needs, maintaining structured repositories and ensuring compliance with ISO9001 and ISO27001 standards — particularly important in regulated healthcare environments.
The role will also involve providing second-line support input where required, helping respond to user queries and ensuring that documentation reflects real-world system usage. A strong understanding of structured documentation processes, governance and controlled release cycles is key.
The ideal candidate will bring proven experience in a Documentation or SharePoint-focused role, outstanding organisational skills and the ability to communicate complex technical concepts in plain English. Experience with SharePoint Online and SharePoint 2016/2019 is essential. SQL knowledge and the ability to work with HTML, Razor/C# and JavaScript are highly advantageous. Exposure to understanding application code is beneficial but not essential.
This is an excellent opportunity to contribute to healthcare technology that supports critical services, within a collaborative and employee-focused organisation that values precision, quality and continuous improvement.
Location: Burton-in-Kendal, Cumbria Salary: £35,000 – £45,000 + Bonus + Private Healthcare + Benefits Hybrid: 3 days in the offices (5-days a week in the offices during probation)
Applicants must have the right to work in the UK.
