About the role
As the Manager - Property Projects and Fitouts for the National Property portfolio of Australian Red Cross, you will be responsible for leading the end-to-end project management of tenancy and fit-out projects from initial concept design through to final completion.
You will be at the heart of transforming our workplaces into dynamic, human-centered environments that foster innovation, collaboration and sustainability. From tech-enabled fit-outs to agile space upgrades and cutting-edge refurbishment projects, you will play a pivotal role in reimagining and optimising our workplaces.
This is a hands-on and multifaceted role, encompassing the full scope of capital works with responsibilities including overseeing lease negotiations relating to landlord fit-out obligations, managing contractors and consultants, ensuring WHS compliance and supporting facilities maintenance.
About you
With substantial experience managing large-scale retail or commercial fit-out projects and Project Management experience in a construction environment, you will demonstrate flexibility and problem-solving acumen to manage complex challenges across diverse project environments. Leveraging your expertise, you will ensure that all projects are delivered efficiently and effectively, meeting high standards of quality, safety and compliance.
Success in this role will require the ability to coordinate a broad range of stakeholders, including landlords, contractors, consultants and internal stakeholders, to ensure timely delivery within budget and to the highest standards of quality, safety and compliance.

* Problem Solving & Initiative: Able to analyse complex issues, think critically, and take initiative to solve problems - especially in situations where there are no clear processes or precedents.
* Stakeholder Collaboration: Excellent communication and relationship management skills, with the ability to collaborate effectively with internal and external parties. Achieve the best outcomes by bringing people together to work towards common goals.
