Contract Administrator – Canadian Tire – Laval, QC

Canadian Tire Corporation is looking for a Contract Administrator to join their Finance Shared Services team in Laval, QC. This role sits at the intersection of finance and construction — an ideal fit for someone who thrives in a dynamic, detail-driven environment and enjoys working across multiple teams and stakeholder groups.

Day to day, you’ll be handling accounts payable functions while collaborating closely with the construction team. From tracking budgets and processing invoices to managing capital approval documents and project repositories, this position keeps things moving on the administrative side of large-scale construction and real estate projects.

About the Role: Contract Administrator

As a Contract Administrator, you’ll be at the front lines of financial and contractual activity — issuing and processing capital approval documents, purchase orders, progress draws, tenant allowances, and vendor invoices quickly and accurately. You’ll use various systems to record and track budgets alongside vendor invoicing, and maintain thorough project repositories from setup through closeout.

Equally important is your role as a connector. You’ll build and maintain relationships with consultants, vendors, general contractors, architects, lawyers, landlords, and internal teams including Real Estate Accounting. You’ll engage in strategic conversations across multiple levels to improve processes, drive efficiencies, and champion a one-company approach. When issues arise, you’ll take accountability — whether that means resolving problems directly or escalating appropriately.

Employees enjoy comprehensive benefits and retirement programs, performance incentives, continuing education programs, and product discounts.
