➤ Why this role matters
Contract administration is no longer a support function, it’s a strategic edge. In an era of multi-billion-dollar construction projects and razor-thin margins, the ability to interpret, execute, and defend contracts is mission-critical.

At Construction Management Associates (CMA), we’ve built our reputation by delivering exceptional contract administration services across the MENA region since 1999. Our clients include some of the region’s largest and most complex clients, the kind where poor contract execution isn’t just costly, it’s catastrophic.

And yet, world-class contract administrators with real construction experience are in short supply.

This is where you come in. If you’re fluent in both the legal logic of contracts and the real-world messiness of construction, this role puts you at the heart of the action, where impact isn’t theoretical. It’s measurable.

➤ When contracts go wrong: the cost of poor administration
For three consecutive years, poor contract administration has ranked among the top causes of construction disputes. When contracts fail, projects derail and reputations suffer. Our approach prevents that. We embed world-class contract administration into high-value projects to ensure obligations are met, risks are neutralized, and value is protected from day one. This is high-stakes, high-discipline work, and we only hire those who treat it as such.

➤ What you’ll do
You’ll contribute to the contract lifecycle, from pre-construction planning through execution to final closeout. This means ensuring the contract is not just a static document, but a living framework that guides every commercial and operational decision. You’ll safeguard the client’s interests at every stage, proactively identifying risks, enforcing obligations, and ensuring that both the letter and the intent of the contract are honored, not occasionally, but consistently. Your role is to make sure nothing slips through the cracks, no matter how small, and that the contract remains a source of clarity, control, and leverage throughout the life of the project.

➤ Key responsibilities
Draft and respond to contractual correspondence with clarity, accuracy, and strategic intent
Interpret and enforce contract terms, obligations, and deliverables
Manage execution, timelines, milestones, and commercial closeouts
Identify and flag risks early and drive mitigation proactively
Lead the preparation of quantum claims, extensions of time (analysis of construction delays, delay analysis using recognized techniques e.g. Impacted-as-Planned, Time Impact Analysis, As-built Based Methods of Analysis), and variation orders (entitlement and assessment)
Maintain airtight documentation, records, and correspondence
Act as the connective tissue between legal, commercial, and technical teams
Defend the client’s position in disputes, with facts, precision, and authority

• Draft clear and professional emails, minutes, and summaries after key discussions.

• Help tailor CMA experience and case studies to the Jordanian and MENA context.

• Gather, organize, and quality-check inputs from internal teams and external partners for proposals.

• Prepare and review technical and financial proposal documents to ensure they are clear, consistent, and compliant with submission requirements.

• Support creation of presentations, one-pagers, and capability statements.

➤ Your skills
We’re looking for someone who is curious about infrastructure and comfortable operating between strategy and detail.

• Experience: 6-10 years in a relevant field (infrastructure, consulting, engineering, finance, PPP units, public sector, or similar).

• Analytical: able to scan information (reports, news, websites, tenders) and extract what matters.

• Strong communicator: clear written Arabic and English; able to draft concise notes, emails, and summaries.

• Relationship-oriented: comfortable engaging with partners and stakeholders in a professional manner.

• Organized: good at tracking tasks, deadlines, and follow-ups across multiple workstreams.

• Curious about: infrastructure, construction, PPPs, public policy, and how deals get done in practice.

➤ We look for three things

• Ambition for excellence: You want to become truly world-class at what you do, with deliberate effort.

• Problem-solving track record: You’ve shown you can tackle hard problems, whether in projects, studies, work, or extracurriculars, and stick with them until they’re solved.
