Contracts Administrator - Commercial Construction - Western Sydney

Black & Co Recruitment – Sydney Western Suburbs NSW

Contracts Administrator - Commercial Construction - Western Sydney

$120,000 - $140,000 + Super

Work directly with experienced Project Managers and company Directors

Small team = more exposure, responsibility and opportunity

Genuine pathway from Contracts Administrator to Project Manager

Want to become a Project Manager? This is the kind of role that can get you there.

Join a successful Western Sydney builder where you'll get exposure to the complete construction process, learn from experienced people and take on more responsibility as your skills develop.

For candidates living in Western Sydney, there's another major benefit — build your career close to home rather than spending hours every week commuting into the CBD.

The Company

Established and successful commercial builder

Variety of projects from $1M - $10M

Strong systems and ISO accreditations

50+ years of combined experience within the Director group

Hundreds of successfully completed projects

Strong education, government and community portfolio

Commercial, health, heritage, fitout and refurbishment projects

Professional, supportive team culture

This is a business where you'll actually know the Directors and senior management rather than just seeing their names on an organisational chart.

What You’ll Get

Work alongside an experienced Project Manager delivering commercial projects predominantly in the $1M - $10M range, gaining hands-on experience across:

• Procurement and subcontractor management
• Contracts, variations and cost reporting
• Clients, consultants and design coordination
• Programming and project delivery
• Site operations and quality

You’ll work across both office and site, developing a genuine understanding of how complete projects are delivered.

Why It’s Good for Your Career

• Direct mentoring from experienced PMs and Directors
• Exposure to the whole project rather than one small package
• Opportunity to take on responsibility quickly
• Learn both the commercial and construction sides of projects
• Build the skills required to eventually run your own projects
• Genuine pathway into Project Management

About You

We're looking for someone ambitious who wants to keep learning and progressing.

You’ll ideally have:

• Trade or tertiary qualification in construction
• Contracts Administration or related construction experience
• Good organisation and attention to detail
• Reliable references

You don’t need a portfolio of massive projects.

We’re more interested in your attitude, ability and desire to build a serious career in construction.

Where Can It Take You?

If you’ve got the ability and ambition, the opportunity is there.

You’ll be joining a growing business where good people get noticed, responsibility comes with performance and senior management genuinely supports career development.

If Project Management is where you want to end up — and you'd like to build that career closer to home — this could be an excellent next step.
