The answer will be normally found in the bylaws. Normally any officer authorized by the bylaws and Board of Directors can sign. Sometimes a Director can sign. The term "administrator" is not a corporate officer, director or shareholder (the only 3 options.)

The corporation should issue a resolution accepting the terms of the contract and authorizing a person to sign a contract for the corporation. The corporation can authorize any person to sign the contract. It does not have to be the CEO.
