Contract Administrator + Detail Mindset + Lincoln or Omaha 

 

If you’re the type of person who loves clean paperwork, tight compliance, and knowing every contract detail is exactly where it should be — this one’s for you. 

We’re partnering with a rapidly growing heavy civil construction company that has experienced explosive expansion in the past few years. With multiple offices now operating across the region and revenue climbing fast, they’re adding a Contract Administrator to help keep projects organized, compliant, and financially aligned from award through closeout. 

This is a boots-on-the-ground construction environment — fast-paced, blue-collar, and team-oriented. You’ll work directly with Project Managers and collaborate closely with Accounting to ensure contracts, insurance documentation, pay apps, and change orders are handled accurately and on time. 

 

What You’ll Own 

  • Prepare and manage contracts, subcontracts, purchase orders, and amendments 
  • Track and maintain change order logs and subcontract documentation 
  • Review and process subcontractor pay applications before submission to Accounting 
  • Manage Certificates of Insurance (COIs), bonds, lien waivers, and compliance documentation 
  • Ensure insurance requirements are met and remain current throughout the project lifecycle 
  • Maintain organized contract records from project start through closeout 
  • Support Project Managers with documentation, reporting, and financial alignment 
  • Coordinate closely with the Financial Controller to ensure cost tracking accuracy 

 

What They’re Looking For (Non-Negotiable) 

  • 2+ years of experience in a construction contract administration role 
  • Experience working for a General Contractor or Subcontractor 
  • Strong understanding of construction contracts and insurance requirements 
  • Experience with HCSS and Sage 
  • Ability to thrive in a fast-paced, no-frills construction environment 

Highly Preferred: 

  • Heavy civil or underground utility experience 
  • COI management experience 

 

The Environment 

  • Onsite role (Lincoln or Omaha — flexibility to split time if desired) 
  • Fast-growing, high-energy company 
  • Blue-collar, collaborative culture 
  • Direct exposure to project leadership and accounting 

 

Benefits Snapshot 

  • Comprehensive medical, dental, vision coverage 
  • Company-paid life insurance with optional additional coverage 
  • 401(k) with company match (vested immediately) 

 

If you’re detail-oriented, organized, and confident managing contracts and compliance in a construction setting, this is a chance to join a company that’s scaling quickly and needs strong operational players to support that growth.
