Job description

Contract Administrator – Tier 2 Builder | $30M+ Industrial Project
Perth | Up to $160k + Super

A rare opportunity to join a well-established Tier 2 national builder, delivering a $30M+ industrial project in Perth. Despite their national footprint, they have a small, tight knit team in WA - offering genuine exposure, ownership, and influence across the full project lifecycle.

Working from a dedicated site office, you’ll partner closely with an experienced Senior Project Manager and Site Manager, forming a collaborative and agile delivery team.

The Role

As Contract Administrator, you will play a key role in the commercial management of the project, including:
  • End-to-end subcontract administration
  • Procurement and letting of trade packages
  • Cost reporting, forecasting, and budget management
  • Progress claims, variations, and contract negotiations
  • Working closely with site and project leadership to drive outcomes
About You
  • 3–8 years’ experience as a Contract Administrator (ideally within commercial/industrial construction)
  • Experience working with a head contractor
  • Strong commercial acumen and attention to detail
  • Ability to operate autonomously within a small team environment
  • Clear communication style and collaborative approach
Why This Role?
  • Join a respected Tier 2 builder with strong national backing
  • Work in a small, experienced team - no layers, no red tape
  • Gain direct exposure to senior leadership and decision-making
  • Be based on-site, fully embedded in project delivery
  • Attractive salary package up to $160k + Super
This role would suit someone who enjoys being close to the detail, taking ownership, and working as part of a tight, delivery-focused team rather than being one of many in a large project structure.
