Contract Administrator

Contract Administrators primarily review, negotiate, and manage a range of customer and vendor contracts. They support the sales, supply chain, and operations teams to capitalize on new opportunities while maintaining alignment with the company’s risk tolerance and policies. They may interface directly with customers or may provide internal advice which is then implemented by other teams. Secondary responsibilities include supporting the change order process, collecting deliverables from subcontractors, resolving disputes, and maintaining accurate records. Strong communication and organizational skills are crucial for successful coordination between sales, legal, and other departments, and for advancing the company’s interests while preserving goodwill with its customers and vendors.
