Madison Recruitment is partnering with a leading construction contractor to find an experienced Senior Site Administrator to join their Major Projects team.

This is a fixed-term position through to July 2027, supporting the successful delivery of a large-scale, high-profile project.

The Opportunity:

We’re looking for someone who knows what it takes to keep a site-based project team running at full steam. You’ll be embedded on-site and act as the administrative backbone of the project – managing drawings, tracking documentation, ensuring compliance, and supporting meetings with precision and efficiency. This isn’t your standard admin role – we need someone who understands construction projects, has worked closely with project engineers, site managers and commercial teams, and can navigate the fast pace and high expectations that come with Tier 1 and 2 environments.

Key Responsibilities:

• Providing high-level administrative support to the Major Projects team.
• Managing and maintaining current drawing registers and project documentation.
• Downloading and distributing plans, ensuring version control is spot on.
• Taking minutes at fortnightly (or as needed) project meetings.
• Confidently use systems including Procore, Aconex, ProcurePro, Jobpac, and TimeFiler.

What We’re Looking For:

• Solid experience as a Site Administrator or Project Administrator on large-scale construction projects within a tier one or two construction company.
• Strong understanding of how commercial construction projects run – from mobilisation to delivery.
• Proficiency with key industry platforms such as Procore, Aconex, ProcurePro, and Jobpac.
• Detail-oriented, highly organised and proactive – you stay on top of tasks without needing to be followed up.
• Excellent communication skills and the confidence to work alongside a busy site team.

Why This Role?

This is an opportunity to be part of a complex, high-value project from start to finish. You’ll work with a knowledgeable, high-performing team and be part of something that will have a real impact on the industry. For someone who understands construction and thrives in a site environment, this role offers purpose, pace, and variety – all the way through to July 2027.
