Canberra, Australia ACT Government Full time

The Infrastructure and Contracts Branch of Housing ACT is seeking a motivated Assistant Development Manager to join our dynamic Portfolio Planning and Alignment team.

The Assistant Development Manager will lead the Team’s more focused planning work, managing preliminary consultation, consultants, and planning and feasibility studies in relation to Government’s remaining larger/older multi-unit properties (MUPs) and other strategically located assets, suitable for integration with broader urban renewal priorities.

The Assistant Development Manager will support the Team’s Director and Senior Director to deliver Government a range viable urban renewal/divestment options for these sites for future consideration. This will include the assessment of mixed use/tenure urban renewal opportunities, through planning change, redevelopment, and/or adaptive reuse, that strike a balance between unlocking the significant equity held in the sites and desired social outcomes - this may include delivery of a mix of private, public, and affordable housing options, along with commercial uses.

A key feature of this role is the investigation and identification of opportunities for planning uplift within the existing portfolio, in order to optimise land use and more effectively leverage existing assets though pragmatic planning outcomes. The Assistant Development Manager will be required to undertake site-specific assessments on an ad hoc basis. These assessments will support portfolio management activities, though determining whether land assets can be used more efficiently, and value can be created in the site by adapting its use and zoning to allow for more cost-effective or beneficial development, consistent with broader planning outcomes.

More information can be found in the Position Description.

How to Apply: Applications should be submitted as if writing to an Expression of Interest, addressing the selection criteria plus a curriculum vitae and referees.

**Note**:
This is a temporary position for 12 months, with the possibility of extension and/or permanency.
