YOUR NEW EMPLOYERYour new employer is a privately owned commercial construction business with a long history in NSW and a growing presence across Newcastle, the Hunter and Central Coast.
Their approach is centred around a simple philosophy: building communities together.
For them, that starts with their own people and extends to subcontractors, consultants, clients and ultimately the communities their projects serve.They are deliberately investing in local people and relationships, with a strong regional pipeline across health, education and government infrastructure.
They are also selective about the work they take on and place a huge amount of importance on the way they work with their subcontractors and project partners.That same thinking extends internally.
They are genuinely family focused, big on developing their people and offer monthly one-on-ones, annual performance and salary reviews, mentoring and clear opportunities to keep progressing.YOUR NEW JOBThis is a site-based Contracts Administrator role, putting you right alongside the project rather than administering it from a desk somewhere else.
