Our client, an established and respected building services company based in Norfolk, is looking for an organised, capable Contract Administrator/Buyer to join their team.

• Maintaining accurate contract and order records
• Liaising with site teams, suppliers, and subcontractors to ensure timely delivery of materials
• Supporting the wider team with general contract administration duties
• Building and maintaining strong supplier relationships to secure the best value for the business

What Our Client Is Looking For

• Strong organisational skills and real attention to detail
• Confidence negotiating with suppliers and subcontractors
• Previous experience in a contract administration, buying, or procurement role (construction or building services background advantageous but not essential)
• A proactive, can-do attitude and the ability to manage competing priorities
• Good communication skills, comfortable liaising across site and office teams
• IT literate, with solid working knowledge of Excel and general office systems

Why Apply

This is a stable, varied role within a well-regarded business, offering the chance to get involved across a broad range of projects and build strong relationships across the industry.
