Information Specialist, Edinburgh

Izzie Finlayson

"The company encourages a healthy work / life balance and provides a great benefits package based on the knowledge that its employees are its core."

I started in WoodMac's Edinburgh office in 2002 on a 6 month maternity cover contract having just completed a PgDip in Information and Library Studies at Strathclyde University and am now an Information Specialist in the Information Management department.

The job covers a broad range of responsibilities - undertaking regular and ad hoc research for teams across the business, maintaining the in-house current awareness system and administering and maintaining the company intranet and parts of the external website.

The job is demanding, requiring good communication skills and the ability to juggle very different tasks which are often requested at short notice and requiring a quick turnaround. You never know quite what the next phone call or email is going to involve so each day is challenging and fresh.

I love my job and working for WoodMac. I work with a strong and supportive team in a company that is internationally known and respected, in a great location within a fantastic city. The business is always on the move - new projects, new faces, new offices and new challenges. The company encourages a healthy work / life balance and provides a great benefits package based on the knowledge that its employees are its core.
