Job description

The Contracts Manager oversees end-to-end administration and execution of construction and related third-party services for the client's project. With sourcing largely complete, the emphasis is on construction-phase commercial delivery, with a primary focus on Time & Material (T&M) contracting.

  • Identify and proactively mitigate key risks in T&M contracts.

Contract Administration & Claims Management

  • Oversee large-scale contract claims and closeout processes, including experience with multi-billion-dollar projects.
  • Prevent claims and detect early disputes in T&M environments using defined metrics and indicators.
  • Ensure contractor compliance with owner requirements and contractual obligations.
  • Drive value creation and profitability in T&M contracts, delivering significant cost savings.
  • Validate and reconcile labor hours, material costs, and equipment usage to prevent overbilling and cost escalation.

Stakeholder Engagement & Negotiation

  • Collaborate with legal, senior leadership, and vendors to manage expectations in dynamic T&M contract settings.
  • Apply advanced negotiation techniques (e.g., Karrass Advanced Negotiations) for setting markups and fee structures.

Systems & Tools

  • Utilize contract lifecycle management systems (e.g., SAP, Procore) for reporting and oversight in T&M projects.
  • Leverage AI or digital platforms to enhance productivity and efficiency in contract management.

Qualifications

  • 15+ years of experience in Contracts and SCM
  • Demonstrated experience managing T&M contracts in construction environments.
  • Proven ability to lead contract conversions and manage claims at scale.
  • Strong financial acumen and analytical skills.
  • Advanced negotiation and stakeholder management capabilities.
  • Proficiency with contract management systems and digital tools.
  • Strong experience with T&M contracts with ability to manage change, and solid understanding of LEM
