ABOUT THIS ROLE

Contracts admin/officers support the preparation, processing and coordination of contract documentation across procurement, projects and operations. The role covers preparing and reviewing contract paperwork, tracking key dates and obligations, maintaining accurate records, and liaising between internal teams, suppliers and clients to keep contracts moving through their lifecycle.

It’s a coordination and documentation-focused role rather than a commercial decision-making one, suited to candidates who are highly organised and comfortable working across multiple stakeholders.

In Brisbane, contracts admin/officers work across a wide range of businesses, from procurement and operations teams through to government and project-based organisations. Demand is steady, and businesses value candidates who can manage volume and detail accurately without things slipping through the cracks.

Our recruitment guide on hiring administration and office support staff in Brisbane explains why good candidates are harder to find right now, and what separates a candidate who can manage genuine commercial risk from one who can’t.

What We Screen For

Demonstrated Administration or Coordination Experience

Candidates should have hands-on experience in an administration, procurement or coordination role, with exposure to contract or document processing.

Document Accuracy and Record-Keeping

Strong attention to detail is essential, particularly when processing contract documentation, tracking renewal dates and maintaining accurate records.

Proficiency with Office and Procurement Systems

Confident use of Microsoft Office is expected, along with the ability to learn contract management or procurement software systems quickly.

Communication Across Teams

The role requires clear communication with internal teams, suppliers and clients to keep contract processes moving without delay.

Organisation and Time Management

Candidates need to manage multiple contracts and deadlines at once, staying on top of what’s due and what needs follow-up.

Understanding of Basic Contract Terms

A working understanding of standard contract terms and processes is expected, without requiring formal legal or commercial qualifications.
