Northmark Commercial Advisory

Commercial Resourcing & Embedded Support

Experienced commercial capability, when your project needs it.

Northmark provides experienced commercial and contract resources to support project teams through mobilisation, periods of increased workload, capability gaps and longer-term delivery requirements.

Our Approach

Commercially capable people, not simply personnel.

Our resourcing solutions can be structured on an onshore, offshore or hybrid basis, giving clients flexible and cost-effective access to experienced commercial support.

Before recommending a solution, we take the time to understand the project, the contract environment and the level of experience required.

Our objective is to provide commercially capable resources who integrate effectively with project teams and strengthen contract administration and commercial performance — backed by the same discipline and governance that underpin our advisory work.

Day-to-day contract administration, correspondence, registers and commercial records.
