Join Seymour Whyte for the Beerburrum to Nambour (B2N) Upgrade Project, a major civil infrastructure project being delivered as a joint venture with John Holland and focused on enhancing the rail transport network between Beerburrum and Nambour on the Sunshine Coast. Once completed, B2N will improve the North Coast Line, making travel faster and better connecting the Sunshine Coast, Moreton Bay and Brisbane.

We currently have two opportunities for Project Administrators to join our team. These site-based roles will play a key role in supporting project delivery. One position will focus on finance administration, while the other will work closely with the Delivery Manager, assisting with reporting and general site administration. This is a fast-paced, dynamic environment where no two days are the same, suited to individuals with strong attention to detail and a proactive, can-do attitude.

We are looking for candidates who can demonstrate:

  • Proven experience in administrative roles within the civil construction industry.
  • Exceptional organisational and time management skills, with the ability to prioritise tasks and meet tight deadlines.
  • Understanding of job costing, purchasing and accounts procedures is highly desirable.
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills, with a collaborative and team-focused approach.
  • Proficient in using Microsoft Office applications (Excel, Word, Outlook) and other relevant software tools.

Many of our projects are located in regional areas, therefore all applicants must hold a current Driver’s Licence and have their own transport.

We have a range of benefits available for our employee:

  • Financial Wellbeing: competitive remuneration, salary continuance insurance and employee share program.
  • Generous Leave Benefits: purchased leave program, paid parental leave, and birthday leave – have your birthday off on us!
  • Career Development: training, mentoring and leadership development programs.
  • Health & Wellness: discounted health insurance, seasonal vaccinations, fertility benefit and employee assistance program (EAP).
  • Enjoy shopping, fitness and wellbeing discounts through our Flare and WHEREFIT partnerships including discounted gym memberships and classes.
