• Lead projects end-to-end, from briefing through to hand-over.
• Secure approvals & funding by drafting enterprise briefs and obtaining sign-off from Asset Management, Group Ops, partners and regulators.
• Manage SAP roll-outs by implementing all SAP changes for DD&C, ensuring correct setup and data.
• Shape asset plans; feed into feasibility studies, disposals, acquisitions and long-term masterplans.
• Coordinate capital transfers such as handling leasing changes, renewals and downsizes for each asset
• Plan & prioritise balanced development and operational capital projects across multiple assets.
• Collaborate regularly to align scope, budget and timing with Finance, Legal, Planning, Asset Teams and co-owners.
• Lead forums: run DCMs, PCGs and project check-ins; resolve day-to-day queries and escalate as needed.
• You influence planning controls and local frameworks by managing council and state relationships.

What sets you apart

• You’re a reflective learner, capturing lessons from every project, refining processes, and sharing tips with your peers.
• You will have experience working on large scale Residential or Mixed-Use projects
• Coaching others on things such as approvals, budgeting and system use to help them grow comes naturally to you.
• Past challenges have made you persistent—you stay focused and positive when the unexpected happens, showing that you are steady under pressure.
• You build genuine relationships—whether with project teams, council officers or JV partners—and keep dialogue open.
• You take responsibility for every stage of delivery, follow through on commitments and keep others informed.
• When priorities shift or approvals stall, you adapt calmly and find new ways forward.
• You use strategic tactics like market and portfolio insights to shape smart development recommendations and spot new ideas.
• You anticipate risks—whether regulatory, competitive or budgetary—and propose practical fixes.
• Using your commercial awareness, you balance cost, time and quality to deliver the best outcome for the business.
