Sydney, New South Wales, Australia Versatile Construction Full time $90,000 - $120,000 per year

Versatile Group is a dynamic construction and development company delivering high-quality projects across NSW & QLD. With a reputation for excellence, collaboration, and innovation, we pride ourselves on building spaces that shape communities and create long-term value.

We are seeking an experienced and commercially astute Contracts Manager to join our growing team. This is a career-defining role for someone ready to step up from Senior Contracts Administration and take ownership of both client-side (upstream) and subcontractor/supplier-side (downstream) contractual management.

As a Contracts Manager, you will lead the contractual and commercial function across multiple construction projects. You will act as a trusted advisor to project teams, driving rigour in contract administration, risk management, and commercial decision-making.

You will play a pivotal role in:

  • Negotiating, interpreting, and managing complex head contracts and subcontracts.
  • Protecting the business through sound risk allocation, proactive claims management, and strategic dispute resolution.
  • Developing and maintaining strong relationships with clients, subcontractors, suppliers, and internal stakeholders.
  • Ensuring both upstream and downstream obligations are met, while maximising project profitability and protecting Versatile Group's commercial interests.

Key Responsibilities

  • Lead all aspects of contract management and administration we are looking for you to roll your sleeves up and make impact.
  • Provide commercial advice to project teams on risk, claims, variations, extensions of time, and liquidated damages.
  • Negotiate and manage upstream (client/consultant) and downstream (subcontractor/supplier) contracts to achieve favorable outcomes.
  • Develop and implement contract administration systems, templates, and dispute management strategies.
  • Manage contractual correspondence, claims, notices, securities, warranties, and insurances.
  • Coordinate with project management, legal, design, risk, and safety teams to ensure obligations are clearly understood and delivered.
  • Foster and maintain productive working relationships across the client, consultant, subcontractor, and supplier network.
  • Oversee vendor/supplier performance, ensuring adherence to contract terms, budgets, and project requirements.
  • Support tender evaluations, contract drafting, and procurement strategy development.
  • Mentor and support Contracts Administrators and Cadets, building internal capability within the team.

What We're Looking For

  • Proven experience as a Senior Contracts Administrator or Contracts Manager in the construction industry.
  • Strong knowledge of construction law, contract types (AS, GC21, NEC, FIDIC, etc.), and commercial risk management.
  • Exceptional negotiation and stakeholder management skills across clients, consultants, subcontractors, and suppliers.
  • Demonstrated ability to provide strategic commercial advice in fast-paced project environments.
  • Strong analytical, organisational, and communication skills.
  • Proficiency with construction contract management systems and financial reporting tools.
  • A collaborative mindset with the ability to lead, mentor, and influence others.
  • Relevant tertiary qualifications in Construction Management, Law, Engineering, Quantity Surveying, or similar.
