subcontracts administrator.

The Subcontractor Administrator plays a critical role in managing the lifecycle of our third-party specialty partners and vendors. Because we maintain an uncompromising standard for quality and zero-tolerance safety on heavy industrial job sites, this individual is responsible for pre-qualifying, negotiating, drafting, and managing subcontracts from inception to project closeout. You will act as the vital bridge between project management, legal, and our subcontracting partners to ensure all external teams meet our client's stringent cost, schedule, and safety compliance requirements. Required Qualifications

• Experience: 3–5+ years of experience in contract administration, subcontracts management, or procurement specifically within the heavy industrial, mechanical, or civil construction sectors.
  
  
• Education: Bachelor’s degree in Construction Management, Business Administration, Supply Chain, or a related field (equivalent field experience will be considered). *Highly preferred - not an absolute dealbreaker if experience makes up for lack of formal degree*
  
  
• Technical Skills: Proficiency with modern construction tech platforms (Procore or similar Project Management/Bid software) and corporate ERP accounting systems. Advanced knowledge of contract law, insurance requirements, and lean waivers in an industrial environment.
  
  
• Core Competencies: Extreme attention to detail (zero tolerance for unvetted compliance risk), exceptional negotiation skills, and a highly organized, schedule-driven mindset.
  
  

What We Offer

• Competitive salary and comprehensive benefits package (Medical, Dental, Vision).
  
  
• Participation in our Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP)—giving you direct wealth-building potential through company growth.
  
  
• 401(k) matching, paid time off, and continuous training opportunities.
  
  
• A disciplined yet deeply rewarding team environment where honesty, dignity, and hard work are celebrated.

Responsibilities

• Collaborate with Estimating and PMs to develop precise SOW and RFP packages.
  
  
• Administer the bidding process, analyze subcontractor proposals for gaps or overlaps, and conduct commercial negotiations to secure maximum value without sacrificing quality.
  
  
• Draft, review, and execute localized and project-specific subcontract agreements using corporate templates, ensuring appropriate flow-down clauses from the primary owner-contractor agreement.
  
  
• Review, process, and track subcontractor monthly pay applications, lien waivers, and closeout documentation in accordance with project timelines.
  
  
• Evaluate, negotiate, and process subcontractor change order requests, verifying costs and schedule impacts against the original contract terms.
  
  
• Monitor subcontractor progress alongside PMs to proactively identify potential schedule delays or contractual disputes, resolving variances or performance issues.
  
  
• Maintain the corporate subcontractor database, utilizing construction management software (e.g., Procore) to streamline tracking, communication, and document controls.
  
  
• Foster strong, long-term partnerships with trusted specialty vendors
