A specialist cost consultancy is seeking a Contract Administrator to join its Sydney team, working alongside one of Australia's leading data centre providers across major live projects.
This is an opportunity to gain hands‐on commercial experience within one of Australia's busiest construction sectors, supporting the delivery of large-scale data centre developments while working within an experienced cost and commercial team.
Role Overview
This role is suited to someone with experience in Contract Administration, Quantity Surveying or project coordination who is organised, commercially minded and confident working with project documentation and numbers.

Established templates and processes are already in place, allowing you to focus on reviewing project information, preparing accurate claims and ensuring documentation is completed within required timeframes.
You'll spend three days per week on site, working closely with project teams and gaining direct exposure to live data centre delivery, with the flexibility to work from home two days per week.
