About the role

As the Commercial Manager, you will play a critical role in the front-end of major infrastructure projects, leading pre-contract and tendering activities that set projects up for success.

Specific activities will include:

  • Leading negotiations on tender terms, head contracts, subcontracts, and supplier agreements in line with Australian standards to ensure commercial strength and risk mitigation.
  • Providing commercial advice and strategic input to senior management and project teams to support decision-making.
  • Overseeing subcontractor and supplier selection, awards, and contract administration, including payment applications, claims, and dispute resolution.
  • Mentoring and guiding contract administrators, sharing best practice in pre-contract processes and commercial management.
  • Supporting the development and implementation of commercial management policies, systems, and procedures to enhance efficiency and governance.

Your skills and experience

  • Degree in Engineering, Business, Commerce, Contract Law, or related discipline.
  • Extensive experience (10+ years) in commercial and contract management on major infrastructure projects.
  • Strong background in tendering, procurement, contract negotiation, and dispute resolution, with knowledge of Australian standards.
  • Proven ability to identify and manage commercial risks while developing competitive pricing and bid strategies.
  • Experience working in Joint Venture project environments (highly regarded).
  • Excellent stakeholder management and communication skills, with the ability to influence and build positive relationships.
  • Highly organised, methodical, and able to manage competing deadlines effectively.
