Residential Design Build Contract Administrator

From dreaming to dream home.

Canyon Design Build is a full-service design, architectural, and general contracting firm that's partnered with Bay Area homeowners for over 50 years. We're growing our office team and looking for a detail-driven Contract Administrator to keep every project's paperwork as solid as the work itself.

This in-office position sits at the center of our project lifecycle — working daily with our designers, project managers, builders, and accounting team to keep contracts, changes, and financial documentation accurate, current, and moving. You'll be the person everyone trusts to get the numbers and the language right the first time.

• Development and drafting of primary (prime) contracts with clients
• Subcontract agreements — negotiation, execution, and tracking
• Change orders and potential change orders, start to finish
• Subcontractor change orders
• Allowances and alternates, kept current across every active job
• Coordination with Project Managers, Design, and Accounting to keep budgets, scopes, and documentation aligned

• Experience in construction contract administration (residential remodel/design-build a plus)
• Strong command of contract language — prime contracts, subcontracts, change orders
• Sharp attention to detail and comfort managing multiple active projects at once
• Clear, professional written and verbal communication
• Proficiency with MS Office; construction project-management software experience a plus

One company. One phone call. One team. We bring designers, craftsmen, and project managers together under one roof — and we're looking for someone who wants to be part of that collaborative, detail-obsessed culture.
