Automating Table Fields in Word

So I am creating a Master Template Document for my business for all of their documents they have to fill out for a Project.

The idea is simple, each document has header information such as author, date, project name etc.

I want all this header information on the first page of the template so that when I fill it out, the header information for each other form is filled out automatically.

I have tried using bookmarks, and then linking to those bookmarks. However if I change a bookmark the links do not update.

Is there any way to do this with bookmarks? I have tried using Excel and mail merging the fields but I don't think my team will be able to be comfortable with that, I would prefer a method that stays within Word.
