Description

We're a multi-brand hospitality and beverage group with a pipeline of venue builds in Western Sydney: a brewery venue, a gelato store, a gallery and a potential distillery. We're looking for one person who brings Quantity Surveyor and Contracts Administrator experience, ideally with project management, to own competitive pricing and the commercial and approvals spine of every project from start to finish.


Key responsibilities


Prepare cost plans, estimates and bills of quantities for each project


Run competitive tendering and pricing for trades and packages, and benchmark quotes to make sure we're paying the right price


Track budgets, forecast final costs and report on cost to complete


Value variations and progress claims, and manage final accounts


Prepare, negotiate and administer trade and supplier contracts


Own the approvals and certification pathway: CDCs, DAs where needed, construction certificates and Occupation Certificates


Manage the documentation trail from start to finish: notices, variations, payment claims, certificates, warranties and compliance records


Liaise with certifiers, council, engineers and consultants


Build and maintain the project program, milestones and critical deadlines alongside our operations team


Coordinate consultants and contractors so approvals, pricing and works stay aligned


About you


Qualified or experienced Quantity Surveyor with strong cost planning, estimating and tendering skills


Proven Contracts Administrator experience, including NSW approvals (CDC, CC, OC) and certification through to contract close-out


Project management experience on commercial fit-outs or builds is highly regarded, ideally in hospitality (bars, commercial kitchens, venues)


Comfortable working across several projects at once, from early pricing through to handover


Organised and commercially sharp, with meticulous documentation


Collaborative and comfortable working closely with hands‑on operators, brand leads and on‑site trades


Relevant tertiary qualifications (Quantity Surveying, Construction Management or similar) highly regarded


About us


We're a multi-brand hospitality and beverage group with a pipeline of venue builds in Western Sydney: a brewery venue, a gelato store, a gallery and a potential distillery.

A varied, multi-project pipeline across brewing, hospitality, retail and arts venues


A single, senior role where you own the commercial side end to end, not one slice of it


A direct line to decision‑makers and fast approvals


An experienced in‑house operations team already handling procurement, operational fit-out and compliance
