Shape trust, probity and performance for a growing City

The City of Armadale is one of WA's fastest-growing communities, where more than 100,000 people live, work and belong. As our new Contract Management Specialist, you'll play a pivotal role in safeguarding the City's integrity and delivering value-for-money outcomes across major services and projects.

  • Be the trusted advisor to leaders and teams on contract obligations, supplier performance and risk.
  • Build organisational capability by coaching staff and improving frameworks, templates and processes.

Why this role?

  • Impact: What you do directly shapes trust in how the City is run.
  • Challenge: Stretch into high-profile, complex contracts and negotiations.
  • Growth: This is a 12-month full-time contract with a strong view to permanency — the chance to showcase your impact and secure your future in local government.
  • Culture: Work where values aren't posters on a wall — Care, Better Together, Learn & Grow, Seize Today.

  • 12% superannuation (with matching contributions available).

About you

You bring strong experience in contract management within a regulated environment (government, utilities, infrastructure, or similar). You're confident navigating complex contracts, managing risks and disputes, and you can translate technical detail into clear advice for leaders.

Membership of CIPS or equivalent is desirable — but what matters most is your expertise, judgement, and ability to build trust.
