The Opportunity

Are you a sharp Contracts Advisor who excels at managing the entire lifecycle of critical supply packages? Do you thrive on mitigating commercial risk and maximising value on major resource projects?

We are representing a Tier 1 leader in the Australian mining and construction sector, renowned for delivering some of the nation's most significant resource projects. As their project portfolio expands, they are seeking a diligent and commercially-minded Contracts Advisor to join their high-performing procurement team in Perth.

This is a fantastic opportunity to secure a long-term contract with an industry giant, offering a genuine potential pathway to a permanent role for a high performer.

What You Will Own & Drive

• You will drive the full tender process for key subcontract and supply packages, from preparing and issuing tender documents to evaluating submissions and preparing business cases for award.
• You will be responsible for drafting, reviewing, and negotiating various agreements (subcontract, supply, consultancy), ensuring alignment with company standards and legal requirements.
• As the key commercial point of contact, you will manage active contracts, handling variations, extensions, claims, and dispute resolution to protect project outcomes and control spend.
• You will work closely with Project Managers, finance teams, and department heads, providing expert advice and support to ensure seamless contract execution and administration from award to final close-out.
• You will manage the end-to-end 'procure to pay' process within the company's ERP system (JDE), ensuring all contractual data, payments, and supplier information are accurately maintained.

Who We're Looking For

• You have demonstrable experience in a Contracts Advisor or Administrator role, ideally within the mining, resources, or heavy construction sectors.
• Your experience covers the full contract lifecycle, from tender and award through to administration, negotiation, and close-out.
• You possess strong negotiation and dispute resolution skills, with a keen eye for detail and the ability to identify and mitigate commercial risks.
• You build rapport easily and can confidently liaise with a wide range of internal stakeholders, suppliers, and subcontractors.
• You are proficient with procurement and finance systems. Familiarity with ERP systems like JDE is highly advantageous.
• You are a highly organised professional who can manage multiple contracts and priorities in a dynamic project environment.

What's on Offer

• An excellent rate of $60 - $72 per hour + Super is on offer.
• This is a long-term, stable contract role (Monday to Friday) with a genuine opportunity to transition to a permanent position.
• Gain invaluable experience across a diverse portfolio of large-scale, complex mining and construction projects.
