  • Identify records subject to litigation holds, audits, investigations, or other restrictions and ensure they are excluded from destruction.

  • Prepare eligible records for secure shredding and disposition.

  • Maintain accurate records inventories, disposition logs, and supporting documentation.

  • Update records management systems and databases as documents are processed.

  • Maintain strict confidentiality when handling sensitive, proprietary, and legal information.

  • Track project progress and help ensure document review and purge activities remain on schedule.

  • Identify opportunities to improve records organization, storage, and document management processes.

Qualifications
  • 3+ years of experience in records management, information governance, document control, document imaging, or a related field.

  • Hands-on experience managing physical and/or electronic records disposition projects.

  • Experience preparing documents for scanning, scanning records, organizing electronic files, and preparing approved records for destruction.

  • Understanding of records retention schedules and document lifecycle management.

  • Strong organizational skills and exceptional attention to detail.

  • Ability to independently manage a high-volume records project from beginning to end.

  • Strong written and verbal communication skills.

  • Proficiency with Microsoft Office and records/document management systems.
