About the role
The opportunity
This is a rare chance for an accomplished Senior Contract Administrator to join a nationally significant Defence infrastructure program. Based permanently in Perth in an offsite project role, you will combine long-term job security with genuine commercial ownership on a large, technically complex civil scope.
Reporting to the Commercial Manager, you will manage selected upstream obligations and the downstream administration of major civil, airfield and enabling-works packages while working for the managing contractor. You will be trusted to protect commercial outcomes, resolve issues early and help drive the project through construction, commissioning and handover.
What you will own
You are a proven Senior Contract Administrator with strong civil or infrastructure project experience, sound commercial judgement and the confidence to take ownership in a complex delivery environment. You are disciplined, proactive and detail-focused, with the communication skills to influence stakeholders and provide practical commercial leadership during negotiations. You’ll possess relevant tertiary qualifications in Construction Management & Economics, Quantity Surveying, or similar. Experience on Defence, aviation, remote or major infrastructure projects will be highly regarded, particularly exposure to Managing Contractor or Integrated Managing Contractor delivery models.
*NOTE: Existing rights to live/work in Australia are non negotiable.
Make your next project count! If you are ready to embrace a long-term Perth-based role on one of Australia's most distinctive Defence infrastructure projects, apply through SEEK for a confidential discussion.
