Exciting opportunity to join a leading residential and mixed use developer with a long-term project pipeline, taking large-scale apartment and mixed-use developments from DA through to construction delivery across multiple stages.
Our client is a leading developer delivering multiple billion-dollar residential and mixed-use projects. Despite the scale of their developments, they operate with highly capable internal team, offering significant responsibility, autonomy, and exposure across the full development lifecycle.

In addition to Stage 1, you will have exposure across multiple future stages, including residential, mixed-use, retail, medical, and commercial components at various phases of design, approvals, and delivery.

* Quality control and defect management
* Complex stakeholder management, including interfaces with local schools, hospitals etc.
Pre-Construction & Development (Secondary):

* Design management across early and detailed stages
* Potential involvement in ECI processes

* Contract administration experience (D&C preferred but not essential)
* Ability to manage quality, defects, and detailed delivery issues
* Calm, professional approach to managing sensitive stakeholder environments
