THE OPPORTUNITY

We are looking for a Contract Administrator to join our Sydney team.

You will manage the financial and contractual side of our projects, working closely with the Project Manager and site team to keep each job commercially sound. That includes negotiating and administering subcontractor agreements, processing payment claims and variations, and keeping cash flow positive from procurement through to final account.

As a key point of contact for subcontractors and suppliers, you’ll make sure commercial issues are resolved quickly and the project stays on budget throughout delivery.

WHAT YOU’LL DO

You’ll be responsible for managing key contract and commercial functions throughout the project lifecycle, including:

• Preparing and maintaining procurement programs and purchasing schedules
• Negotiating subcontract packages to secure competitive, reliable outcomes
• Administering head and subcontractor agreements, including payment claims, variations and extension of time (EOT) claims
• Monitoring subcontractor compliance with insurance, licensing and statutory requirements
• Managing project cash flow, cost control and forecasting to keep projects financially sound
• Monitoring and reporting on project costs through regular commercial reporting
• Flagging commercial risks early and finding ways to turn them into opportunities for the project
• Attending site meetings and managing project documentation, including drawings and revisions
• Keeping communication open and relationships strong across subcontractors, consultants and the wider project team

WHAT YOU’LL BRING

You are a detail-oriented construction professional with a solid understanding of how projects operate both on site and commercially. You will also bring:

• 5+ years’ experience delivering commercial construction projects in a contract administration role
• Head contractor experience in commercial construction
• Sound understanding of head contracts and subcontractor agreements, including standard form contracts such as AS4000 or AS4902, and cost control processes
• Degree-qualified in Construction Management, Quantity Surveying or a related discipline
• Experience using contract administration software, with Jobpac experience highly regarded
• Excellent organisational and time management skills
• Strong communication and negotiation skills, with the ability to build relationships across teams
• A proactive mindset with a focus on continuous improvement and risk management
• Current driver’s licence and White Card

WHY JOIN US?

At Mettle, we’re not just building projects — we’re building the future. We invest in people because strength begins with those who live our values every day.

Here’s what sets us apart:

• A purpose-led culture where integrity, care and collaboration guide everything we do
• Meaningful wellbeing support including Employee Assistance Programs and exclusive benefits
• Commitment to continuous learning with mentoring and development opportunities
• An inclusive and flexible workplace where you can be your authentic self
