About the role
The Company
Our client is a nationally recognised, ASX-listed property developer with a long track record of delivering master-planned communities across Australia.
The Role:
Join the Melbourne team and take ownership of a major Victorian portfolio.
- Lead the delivery of a large scale community
- Manage rollout of 200–220 lots per year (traditional housing & townhomes)
- Build and maintain strong builder and stakeholder relationships
- Mentor and lead a dedicated Assistant Development Manager
- Report to senior management and take accountability for your project
- Exposure to an additional smaller scale residential development in close out phase
Why Join this business?
- Stability and credibility of a listed developer
- Direct access to executive leadership and board-level engagement
- Long-term project pipeline with multi-year visibility
- Collaborative, high-performing Victorian team
- Family Friendly Workplace certified
- Exceptional paid parental leave
- Performance incentive opportunity
This is an opportunity to take ownership of a flagship community within a structured, well-capitalised organisation that values leadership, delivery and long-term career growth where success isn’t defined by years of experience but ability.
The Candidate
You Will Bring:
- Strong land subdivision experience as a DM (essential)
- Confidence presenting at JV/board level
- Commercial acumen and stakeholder management capability
- Leadership mindset with a genuine interest in mentoring and developing others
- Town home experience (advantageous but not essential)
- Ability to “hit the ground running” in a fast-paced collaborative environment
Why This Role Stands Out
- Flagship project scale with infrastructure milestones underway
- JV exposure
- Clear portfolio ownership
- Leadership responsibility
- Hybrid flexibility with structured team culture
- Career-defining opportunity within a listed developer
