I need to write keywords to the IPTC metadata but can't find the field to do so. I'm obviously missing something simple!

Add your keyword in the Keyword section of LR then Ctrl + s to write it to the file or XMP sidecar. Also somewhere in the preferences there is an option to write keywords to files on export.
