Darwin, NT | Up to $230,000 Package + Relocation Assistance
Our client is a respected national contractor with a strong pipeline of work across the Northern Territory and broader Australian market. Due to continued growth and a significant project award, they are seeking an experienced Senior Contracts Administrator or Contracts Manager
to join their Darwin team.
This is an outstanding opportunity for a commercially driven construction professional looking to step into a role with genuine influence. Reporting directly to the Project Manager, you will take ownership of the project's commercial performance, working across procurement, contract administration, financial management and stakeholder engagement.
You'll be responsible for driving commercial outcomes, managing risk, overseeing subcontractor agreements and ensuring the successful administration of both head contract and subcontract obligations. This role requires someone who can confidently manage claims, variations, forecasting, contractual notices and reporting while maintaining strong relationships with key project stakeholders.
The ideal candidate will have experience delivering major commercial, building or built-environment projects within a D&C contracting environment. Previous experience with a Tier 1 or leading Tier 2 contractor will be highly regarded, along with strong commercial acumen and a proactive approach to project delivery.
For the right person, this role offers more than just project involvement. The successful candidate will be well positioned to progress into a broader leadership role, overseeing commercial functions across multiple projects as the business continues to grow.
In return, you'll receive a highly competitive package of up to $230,000, relocation assistance for interstate applicants, long-term career opportunities and the chance to join a business that genuinely invests in its people.
This is a site-based role in Darwin and is best suited to candidates currently based in Darwin or willing to relocate. FIFO candidates will not be considered.
