Senior Procurement Contracts Officer

Senior Contracts Officer
Brisbane CBD | Full-time on site | Career pathway into Contract Management

Randstad is partnering exclusively with a well-established commodity trading organisation to recruit a Senior Contracts Officer for their Brisbane CBD office.

This is a hands-on operational role within a small, high-performing contracts team of four supporting high-volume trading activity. The position will suit someone who enjoys being close to the detail of contract and order management while building the capability to step into a Contract Manager role over time.

You will initially join as a senior individual contributor, working closely with the Contract Manager and broader operations team, with clear opportunities to grow into leadership responsibilities as the business continues to expand.

Key Responsibilities

• Contract & Order Management
• Prepare and manage contract documentation end-to-end
• Process purchase orders, sales contracts, invoices, packing lists and shipment reports
• Maintain accurate records and system updates

• Assist with tender quotes and project bids

Operational Coordination

• Act as a key point of coordination between operations, customers and suppliers
• Maintain contract registers, documentation and reporting
• Support high-volume trading activity with strong attention to detail
• Ensure documentation and processes remain accurate and compliant

Team Support & Development

• Provide support and guidance to junior team members
• Step in as second-in-charge when required
• Contribute to improving processes and operational efficiency

About You

This role will suit someone with experience in operational procurement, contracts administration, logistics or trade operations who enjoys working in a fast-paced commercial environment.

You will likely bring:

• Experience in contracts administration, procurement, logistics or supply chain operations
• Strong organisational and documentation management skills
• Experience managing purchase orders, contracts or shipment documentation
• The ability to work closely with internal stakeholders and external vendors
• A hands-on, detail-oriented approach in a high-volume environment

Most importantly, you enjoy operational work today but have the ambition to grow into a Contract Manager role over time.
