At Mirvac, we're proud of our 50‑year legacy — but we're even more excited about what's next. We reimagine urban life by creating places where people and communities thrive, and we do it by putting people first, acting with integrity and working together.

We're looking for a passionate, detail‑driven Senior Cost Planner to join our team and play a pivotal role in shaping the quality, value and success of Mirvac's future projects.
In this role, you will provide construction cost plans, value optimisation, and construction risk advice across a diverse portfolio including build‑to‑sell residential, build‑to‑rent, office, mixed‑use and retail developments. You'll work closely with Development, Design, Architecture and Construction teams to ensure our projects deliver exceptional outcomes while maintaining Mirvac's standards and brand quality.

* Identifying construction risks and driving value optimisation.
* Setting trade budgets and supporting subcontractor and consultant management.
* Participating in design meetings and providing trusted cost advice.

You pair clear communication with sharp analytical and collaborative skills, enabling you to influence outcomes and support project teams effectively.

Backed by tertiary qualifications in building construction, quantity surveying or building economics, you apply deep technical knowledge with confidence.
