Contract Administrator

Are you a Contract Administrator looking to step into a role where no two projects are the same, and you’re surrounded by great people and great clients?

At Mykra, we’re proud to deliver everything from sports clubs, school upgrades and fast food renovations, to childcare centres and remediation projects. Our repeat clients trust us with a wide variety of work, and our Contract Administration Team is the engine that keeps everything turning over.

About the role:

This is a growth position, not a backfill. We’re expanding our Contract Administration Team to support strong forward demand for 2025 and beyond.

Working in our commercial construction department, you’ll work across a variety of projects and collaborate with project managers, subcontractors, and our internal team to handle all things dollars and documents on active projects. You’ll report to our Contracts Manager, and work closely with our site management teams, accounts. This is an office-based role in Klemzig, just northeast of the Adelaide CBD, with free parking and your own workspace.

What you’ll be doing:

• Negotiating and executing subcontracts.

• Financial controls including variation management, claims and forecasting.

• Building relationships with clients, subcontractors and suppliers.

• Document control, RFI processes and generally greasing the construction wheels throughout a project.

Here are 5 things we think will make you ideal for this role:

1. Past experience in commercial contract administration.

2. Strong financial acumen, you own the numbers.

3. Genuine work ethic to “get things done” and put in discretionary effort, even when no-one’s watching.

4. Enthusiasm and positivity with a can-do attitude.

5. Team player because we succeed together.

Why it might not be for you:

1. You’ll need prior commercial contract administration experience. If you’re new to the industry, check out our Grad Program.

2. We don’t build skyscrapers. Our work is broad, meaningful, and community-focused, but not CBD high-rise.

3. We work across multiple jobs at once. If you prefer deep focus on one project, this might not be your rhythm.

4. We value independence. You’ll be supported but expected to own your time and meet deadlines.
