Project Administrator - Civil Infrastructure | Darwin-Based

Description:

Looking for more than just admin work? Step into a fast-paced project environment where your organisational skills and construction knowledge will directly support the success of NT infrastructure projects.
We’re working with a national contractor delivering defence and civil infrastructure works in the Northern Territory. Their Darwin team is growing fast, with awarded projects already underway and more in the pipeline, and they’re now looking for an experienced Project Administrator to help keep operations running smoothly and compliantly on-site.
What You'll Be Doing
This is more than a typical office admin role – you'll be deeply embedded in project delivery , responsible for:

• Full document control across civil packages and compliance processes
• Coordinating site inductions and managing access control systems
• Processing payroll inputs, timesheets, and subcontractor data
• Raising purchase orders, invoicing, and managing procurement tracking
• Supporting the site team across multiple moving parts – including safety, HR, and communication
• Using systems to keep everything and everyone in check

You’ll play a vital role in ensuring everything from site compliance to workforce onboarding runs like clockwork – with the backing of a national company and a close-knit Darwin team.
What We're Looking For

• Previous admin experience on civil or infrastructure projects, ideally with a Tier 1 or large Tier 2 contractor
• Strong document control skills and familiarity with Aconex and site systems like Pegasus or HammerTech
• High level of proficiency across Microsoft Office including SharePoint
• Strong attention to detail and ability to stay calm under pressure
• Able to obtain DCAC clearance (or already cleared) – essential for some of the project scope

Why Join the Team?

• Work on civil and defence projects that contribute to NT infrastructure
• Be part of a supportive, down-to-earth Darwin team backed by a large national group
• Competitive salary package + company perks
• A team that values integrity, care, and getting the job done right
• Ongoing career development, training, and exposure to exciting work environments
