Contract Administrator

Contracts Administrator | Tier 1 Builder Sydney | Projects $5m – $100m (Fitout Division) 

A genuine Tier 1 commercial builder is looking to appoint a high-calibre Contracts Administrator to join their Sydney team.

This is not a mid-tier stepping stone. This is a business delivering complex, design-led projects from $5m through to $100m — with the systems, governance and commercial depth you’d expect at the top end of the market.

If you want exposure to serious head contracts, real commercial strategy and major client environments — this is that platform.

The Business
  • National Tier 1 presence
  • Projects spanning hospitality, commercial workplace, retail, government and specialised environments.
  • D&C and construct-only delivery models.
  • Structured reporting, proper risk frameworks and disciplined commercial processes.
  • Strong pipeline of secured work. 
This is a business that protects margin, manages risk properly and expects high standards.

The Role You’ll work alongside experienced Contracts Managers and Project Managers on projects typically ranging from $20m–$100m (with exposure across the broader $5m–$100m portfolio). You will be embedded in the commercial engine room.

Expect exposure to:
  • Head contract administration on major projects
  • Subcontract negotiation and commercial departures
  • Security of Payment compliance
  • Complex variation management
  • Cost forecasting and cashflow management
  • Risk identification and mitigation
  • Client-side commercial negotiations
This is a commercially driven CA role — not an admin function.

What They’re Looking For
  • 4–10 years’ experience as a CA.
  • Experience on projects $10m+.
  • Contractually literate and commercially sharp.
  • Confident in managing subcontractors and protecting margin
  • Comfortable operating in a high-performance, accountable environment.
  • Degree qualified in Construction Management / QS or similar.
They want someone switched on. Someone who sees the bigger commercial picture — not just the paperwork..

Why This Move Makes Sense
  • Tier 1 brand on your CV
  • Exposure to projects up to $100m
  • Structured mentorship from senior commercial leaders
  • Clear pathway to Senior CA and Contracts Manager
  • Strong systems (not chaos)
  • High-performing team culture
  • CBD based predominatey. Office and Site.. 
Salary circa $150k – $170k + Super, negotiable for the right candidate.
All enquiries handled in strict confidence.

If you’re serious about stepping into a Tier 1 environment and sharpening your commercial capability on larger-scale work, this is worth a proper conversation.
