Senior Contracts Administrator | High-Rise Residential
Brisbane Northside
The Company
This privately owned Brisbane builder has built a strong reputation for delivering high-quality residential and mixed-use developments across South East Queensland.
With close to three decades of experience, the business has established long-standing relationships with developers, consultants and subcontractors, with a significant proportion of its work coming from repeat clients. The company takes a selective approach to its project pipeline, allowing its teams to maintain a strong focus on quality, delivery and client relationships.
With an exciting pipeline of large-scale high-rise residential developments, including projects extending beyond $200m, they are now looking to appoint an experienced Senior Contracts Administrator to join their Brisbane team.
The Role
Working within a lean, high-performing project team, you will take ownership of the commercial and contractual requirements of a major residential development.
This is an opportunity to operate with genuine autonomy and visibility, working closely with the Project Manager, site team, subcontractors and senior leadership.
Your responsibilities will include:
We are looking for an experienced CA who understands the pace, complexity and commercial requirements of delivering major residential construction.
Ideally, you will bring:
This opportunity will suit someone who enjoys the capability and standards associated with a larger contractor but prefers the accessibility, autonomy and culture of a leaner business.
You'll have the opportunity to work on some of Brisbane's significant residential developments, with the business currently delivering premium multi-residential projects within major inner-Brisbane growth precincts.
If you're an experienced Contracts Administrator looking to take greater ownership of major high-rise projects without getting lost within a large corporate structure, I'd be keen to have a confidential conversation.
