Contracts Administrator – Cork, Ireland – Initial 12-Month Contract – Life Sciences

Our client is undergoing major growth, supported by substantial investment aimed at increasing its overall manufacturing capacity in the medical device sector. Recent upgrades include the development of new, advanced automation systems and additional infrastructure enhancements designed to meet growing global healthcare demands.

With a long‑established presence and a highly skilled workforce, the site requires the role of a Contracts Administrator to support their project based in Cork.

What you’ll deliver:

• Review, assess and value contractor and supplier changes (variations), including supporting evidence and entitlement.
• Challenge quotations and change proposals where scope, quantities, rates or substantiation require clarification.
• Maintain change registers and ensure emerging changes are identified and recorded promptly.
• Carry out practical contract administration, including notices, correspondence, records and commercial follow-up.
• Support agreement of variations/change orders and maintain an auditable record of their development.

Experience required:

• Degree in Quantity Surveying or equivalent.
• Practical experience undertaking the role of the Contract Administrator on construction, engineering or capital projects.
• Experience administering contracts with a prospective change-control process, where changes are identified, assessed, valued and commercially agreed before the changed work is carried out.
• Demonstrable experience working with contractors to establish scope, entitlement, quantities, rates, price and programme impact in advance of implementation, rather than relying predominantly on retrospective valuation of completed work.
