ABOUT THIS ROLE
Site administrators provide on-the-ground administrative support for businesses operating from a physical site rather than a head office, managing inductions, documentation, timesheets, purchase orders, correspondence and the day-to-day paperwork that keeps operations compliant and moving. The role sits embedded on-site, working closely with site managers, supervisors and operational teams to keep records accurate and processes running without delay.
In Brisbane, site administrators work across construction and infrastructure projects, manufacturing facilities, energy and resources operations, and other site-based businesses where an on-the-ground administrative presence is needed. Demand is steady across these sectors, and sites without a capable administrator quickly feel the impact through delayed inductions, paperwork backlogs and compliance gaps that can hold up operations.
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 thrives on-site from one who doesn’t.
What We Screen For
Demonstrated Site or Operational Administration Experience
Candidates should have hands-on experience in a site-based or operational administration role, with an understanding of how a live operational environment runs.
Document Control and Record Accuracy
Strong organisational skills are essential, including the ability to manage inductions, certifications, timesheets and operational documentation with consistent accuracy.
Proficiency with Office and Operational Systems
Confident use of Microsoft Office and common operational or project management software is expected, along with the ability to learn site-specific systems quickly.
Communication Across Site and Office Teams
The role requires clear communication with site managers, operational teams and head office, often coordinating between people with very different priorities and schedules.
Ability to Manage Competing Priorities
Site administrators juggle multiple urgent tasks at once. Candidates need to stay organised and responsive when priorities shift through the day.

A working understanding of WHS obligations, induction processes and compliance documentation relevant to operational sites is expected.
