Search for text within a string - make dynamic

Hi,
 
I want to search for a particular word in a column within the table.
I want to be able to pass in the search word as a variable value, so can make this dynamic, can it be done?
 
My code currently looks like this:
SearchForString = IF(
    ISERROR(
        SEARCH("Word", 'Table'[Column)
    ),
    "No Match","Match"
)
