  • Demonstrated success managing or contributing to residential subdivisions across metro Melbourne or regional Victoria
  • Commercially-minded with strong financial acumen (EstateMaster experience highly regarded)
  • Confident communicator and stakeholder manager, both internally and externally
  • Hands-on, energetic and proactive – you enjoy being in the detail and seeing things through

Why You'll Like It:

  • Lead your own project from day one, while being exposed to more complex and high-value projects
  • Work under and learn from a senior team with deep development and delivery experience
  • Be part of a values-driven business with a strong cultural foundation and a big, big future
  • Salary in the $150,000 – $180,000 package range (negotiable based on experience)
