Job Description

The Company

Brisbane-based commercial builder delivering retail, industrial, commercial, hospitality and workplace projects with a strong pipeline and continued growth across the business.

The company is strengthening its delivery capability with experienced people from respected commercial builder backgrounds. This is not a thinly resourced setup where you are left carrying everything yourself. You will be working with capable operators who understand construction, commercial delivery and what proper project support should look like.

The Role
Working closely with the Project Manager and broader delivery team, you will take responsibility for key commercial and contract administration functions across live projects.

You will be involved in:
• Procurement and subcontractor letting
• Scope reviews and trade package preparation
• Subcontractor negotiations and contract administration
• Variations, claims, EOTs and commercial correspondence
• Cost reporting, forecasting and budget tracking
• RFIs, document control and project reporting
• Liaison with clients, consultants, subcontractors and internal project teams
• Supporting projects from procurement through to final account

This role will suit someone who enjoys being close to the project, commercially across the detail, and part of a team that is delivering properly structured work.

About You
You may already be operating as a Senior Contract Administrator, or you may be a strong Contract Administrator ready to step up.

Ideally, you will have:
• Experience as a CA or SCA with a commercial builder
• Exposure to commercial, industrial, retail, fit-out or refurbishment projects
• Strong procurement, variations, claims and cost reporting capability
• Confidence dealing with subcontractors, consultants and project teams
• Good commercial discipline, attention to detail and follow-through
• A construction-related qualification would be well regarded
• Experience with systems such as Procore, Jobpac, Aconex, Payapps, HammerTech or Bluebeam would be beneficial

Most importantly, you will want more than just another CA seat. This will suit someone who wants stronger projects, better people around them and a business where they can keep developing.

What’s On Offer
• Retail, industrial and commercial projects
• Properly resourced project teams
• Experienced operators around you who know what they are doing
• Genuine project variety — not being boxed into one project type forever
• Opportunity to grow with a builder that is building real momentum
• Brisbane-based role with long-term career upside
• Strong team environment and sensible delivery structure


This is a good move for someone who wants the next phase of their career to be about better projects, stronger support and a builder that is heading in the right direction.
