We are seeking an experienced and professional Project Contracts Specialist to lead and execute the full EPC contracting lifecycle for a major energy project based in Perth. This is a hands-on, delivery-focused role working closely with the Project Team, where you will oversee multiple concurrent contracting packages — from ITT development through to final contract award.

  • Conduct direct market engagements with key subsea/EPCI vendors to test the market and gather intelligence

  • Structure and negotiate EPCI contracts that mitigate risk, align with project goals, and meet local and corporate governance requirements

  • Act as the commercial lead during contract execution transition handovers


Requirements

About You

  • 10+ years' experience in contracts & procurement roles, ideally within oil & gas or major infrastructure
  • Proven experience managing the full lifecycle of EPCI contracts for large-scale subsea or offshore projects
  • Strong understanding of market dynamics, particularly with tier-one subsea/EPCI contractors
  • Commercially strategic but operationally hands-on – able to run multiple workstreams independently
  • Clear communicator with strong stakeholder engagement skills, particularly with internal project teams and external vendors
  • Tertiary qualifications in law, business, engineering or related field desirable



Benefits

Why Join?

  • High-impact role on a technically exciting and commercially significant project

  • Interface with a dynamic and high-performing project delivery team

  • Autonomy, influence, and the opportunity to shape major contract outcomes

  • Central Perth-based office
