About the Big Housing Build - High-rise Redevelopment Program
This is Australia’s largest urban renewal project with a pipeline of projects between now and 2051. It will transform Melbourne’s social housing neighbourhoods, replacing 44 ageing high-rises and other buildings with modern, accessible and energy efficient homes and improved community facilities.
With a construction pipeline up until 2051, a total of five estates in inner Melbourne are under active redevelopment and at various stages of project feasibility, planning, procurement, and delivery. Once completed, there will be at least 10% more social housing for Victorians who need it, and more homes close to schools, services, transport, and jobs.
The project is a once in a lifetime career opportunity to be a part of the high-performing team at Homes Victoria, responsible for delivering large-scale urban renewal projects that transform neighbourhoods and drive generational change.
We are committed to developing and supporting a workforce that is well-equipped and highly motivated. All jobs can be worked flexibly, and we encourage applications from Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people and people from diverse backgrounds and abilities.
