Contract Administrator – Front-End Facilities Management / Healthcare Projects
Based Brisbane
Early Works & Scope Management
Full-Time, Permanent
Be the commercial conscience at the start of major infrastructure projects.
We’re representing a national infrastructure delivery firm seeking a Contract Administrator with a front-end, pre-contracts focus. This role is embedded in early planning and procurement phases — where you’ll shape the commercial foundation before boots hit the ground.
If you enjoy spotting risk before it becomes a headline, ensuring scope is clear from the start, and managing variations with precision, this is the role for you.
What You’ll Be Doing:
Leading contract administration during early project planning and procurement stages
Reviewing tender submissions, scopes of work, and pre-contract documentation
Supporting bid teams and commercial managers in the negotiation and execution of contracts
Conducting checks and balances across contract inclusions, exclusions, and risk allocations
Managing head contract obligations and supporting variation tracking from Day One
Working closely with legal, project, and estimating teams to align documentation with delivery intent
What You’ll Bring:
Experience as a Contract Administrator, ideally with exposure to front-end or pre-contract phases
Strong understanding of infrastructure contract types (GC21, AS4000, PPP, or similar)
Ability to interpret scope documents and contracts, flagging inconsistencies early
Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills — from estimators to legal advisors
A detail-oriented mindset and comfort working under tight timelines in the planning phase
Qualifications in Construction Management, Law, Engineering, or similar
Why This Role Stands Out:
Get involved early — influence the commercial setup before delivery begins
Work with high-performing, collaborative commercial and legal teams
Be part of large-scale infrastructure projects across transport, utilities, and civic works
Great career pathway with a business that promotes from within
Competitive salary, flexible arrangements, and long-term pipeline of work
