Are you a seasoned Project Manager / Development Manager with a passion for property and a sharp eye for sales, leasing, and land tenure intricacies? Do you thrive in dynamic, fast-paced environments where no two days are the same?

Our client – a key player in urban renewal and major development initiatives – is looking for a results-driven professional to take the lead on a series of critical property and civil projects, driving them to successful close-out. This is a rare opportunity to step into a high-impact role, leading a small but dedicated team to deliver complex, mixed-use developments and civil projects that shape the future of our communities. Some civil experience or qualifications would be well regarded.

- Engage directly with developers, tenants, councils, and stakeholders

Key Responsibilities

- Lead and manage a compact, high-performing team to deliver outstanding project results
- Drive project close-out activities using a comprehensive task-tracking approach
- Oversee developer deliverables for key mixed-use sites
- Manage design-phase civil projects through procurement, delivery, and contract administration
- Provide strategic support across leasing, defects resolution, land division, and environmental compliance
- Liaise with councils on the handover of public realm assets
- Manage commercial elements of progressive land settlements and multi-residential builds

What You Bring

- Proven experience managing complex property and civil projects – ideally in sales, leasing, conveyancing, and land tenure
- Strong leadership skills with a collaborative, proactive approach
- Expertise in navigating the full project lifecycle – from design through to delivery and asset handover
- Excellent communication and stakeholder engagement skills
- Flexibility to be embedded on-site at both city and southern office locations

Ready to Lead the Charge?

This is your chance to play a pivotal role in delivering innovative, city-shaping developments – with the autonomy, support, and variety to keep every day engaging. If you’re ready to roll up your sleeves, hit the ground running, and help bring transformational projects over the finish line, we want to hear from you
