Are you detail-oriented, passionate about delivering high-quality work, and looking to become an integral part of a supportive and collaborative team? This could be the opportunity you've been searching for!

A long-established and privately owned construction company, based in Brisbane, is expanding its team. With a proud history dating back to 1980s, this organisation specialises in the delivery of commercial, industrial, and cold storage facilities for a range of local, national, and multinational clients across Australia.
This company stands out in the construction industry for its relationship-driven approach — working with clients rather than for them, forging strong partnerships and building a secure pipeline of ongoing projects.

The Role:
An exciting opportunity now exists for a Contracts Administrator who is eager to learn, grow, and develop their expertise within the construction industry. You will work on projects valued between $1 million and $30 million, across the commercial and industrial sectors.
This is a full-time, permanent position based at the head office in Salisbury, Brisbane, with occasional site-based work depending on project requirements. Working closely within a small, multi-disciplinary team, you’ll be hands-on in supporting project delivery and ensuring a high level of client satisfaction.
You'll receive full support and training to excel in your role, with genuine opportunities for career development as the business continues to grow.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Manage contracts from engagement through to project completion
  • Liaise with clients throughout the project lifecycle
  • Respond to and resolve contract and program queries
  • Undertake contract administration tasks, including developing, reviewing, and negotiating variations and claims (with support)
  • Conduct take-offs, analysis, ordering, and purchasing
  • Gather and analyse project data to produce key reports
  • Prepare and monitor project schedules
  • Actively support site management with supplier and subcontractor coordination

Skills & Experience:

  • Previous experience as a Contracts Administrator, Project Administrator, or in a similar role delivering commercial/industrial projects
  • Trade or tertiary qualification in a construction-related discipline (Construction Management, Engineering, Building Surveying, etc.)
  • Sound understanding of project management processes and methodologies
  • Ability to develop processes, procedures, and relevant project reporting
  • Strong IT skills, particularly in Microsoft Excel
  • Experience with Jobpac and Procore (or similar construction software) highly desirable

The Ideal Candidate:

  • Professional and driven, with a strong desire to learn and grow
  • Excellent verbal and written communication skills
  • Confident in holding team members and stakeholders accountable
  • Strong time management skills with the ability to meet deadlines
  • A customer-first mindset, committed to delivering exceptional service
