Junior Contract Administrator / Graduate Civil Engineer

We’re currently working with an established but growing construction contractor in a very strong position, with a healthy pipeline of secured work and clear plans for continued growth. They’re now looking to bring on a junior Contract Administrator to support the delivery team.

This role would suit a recent or near‑graduate Civil Engineer, or someone early in their CA career who may have experience in residential or industrial construction and is keen to develop long term in a commercial contracting environment.

More than background alone, this opportunity is about drive, attitude, and a genuine desire to learn and grow within the business.

The role:

  • Supporting senior Contract Administrators across live projects
  • Assisting with cost control, variations, progress claims and subcontractor packages
  • Exposure to procurement, reporting and project financials
  • Learning the full Contract Administration lifecycle with hands-on mentorship

About you:

  • Degree qualified (or close to completion) in Civil Engineering, Construction Management or similar
  • 1–3 years’ experience in a CA, engineering or project support role
  • Residential or industrial construction background considered
  • Motivated, proactive, and keen to learn the commercial side of construction
  • Strong communication skills and good attention to detail

Why consider this opportunity:

  • Join a business with strong momentum and a solid forward workload
  • Genuine support and development from experienced senior staff
  • Clear long-term career progression for the right person
  • North Melbourne–based role

This is a strong entry-level opportunity for someone looking to build a career in Contract Administration within a growing construction business.
