At G.J. Gardner Homes Albury, the Contracts Administrator is the backbone of the project. You ensure every detail is captured, every approval is chased, and every client feels informed. This is an end-to-end coordination role where you own the process, not just the data entry.
The Friday Perk: Full-time hours with an early 4:00 pm finish every Friday to kickstart your weekend.
Work-Life Balance: Access to a monthly RDO (accrued after your 12-month anniversary).
Established Systems: Work with award-winning national systems and structures that already exist—you just need to run and refine them.
Career Security: Join a reputable, award-winning brand with a strong and stable local presence in Albury.
What You'll Be Doing
Contract Management: Prepare building contracts, specifications, and variations; manage e-signing and Docusign.
Pre-Construction Coordination: Drive the schedule by ordering soil tests, BASIX reports, insurance, and council/certifier approvals.
Data Integrity: Audit job data in the builder portal to ensure plans and specs match the quote perfectly before site start.
Client Experience: Provide warm, jargon-free updates to families, keeping them excited and informed throughout the pre-construction phase.
Team Support: Participate in daily team connections and provide backup for reception and admin to keep the office running like a well-oiled machine.
What You'll Bring
Industry Experience: 3–5 years in Contracts Administration (Residential Building or Construction experience is highly regarded).
Technical Accuracy: High attention to detail with the ability to spot a specification error before it becomes a site mistake.
Organizational Flair: Confidence juggling multiple jobs at different stages without dropping the ball.
Communication Skills: A calm, proactive style and the ability to explain complex approvals to clients simply.
Essentials: A valid Driver's License and a reliable vehicle.
