Davies Stewart is delighted to partner with a highly respected and iconic Australian organisation dedicated to providing essential community and emergency services across the state. We are seeking a high‐calibre Senior Property Manager on a temporary basis to oversee a unique and critical property portfolio.
This is a rare opportunity to manage specialised infrastructure—including clinical sites, aviation facilities, and administrative hubs—where your expertise ensures that vital operations remain safe, compliant, and uninterrupted.
The Opportunity: Strategic Property Leadership
As the Senior Property Manager, you will be responsible for the integrity and functionality of a diverse regional and metropolitan portfolio. This role requires a sophisticated blend of strategic framework development and hands‐on operational management to ensure all facilities are fit‐for‐purpose.
Key Responsibilities include:
* Framework Development: Develop and implement robust property processes, procedures, and documentation to ensure organisational compliance and operational excellence.
* Lease Management: Managed multiple commercial lease agreements end‐to‐end, including high‐level negotiation, renewals, and rigorous critical‐date tracking.
* Specialised Oversight: Ensure facilities, hangars, and clinical sites meet strict safety and compliance standards, maintaining a "ready‐for‐action" environment.
* Asset Lifecycle: Coordinate maintenance, contractor management, and asset lifecycle planning across all sites to maximise efficiency and longevity.
* Project Delivery: Lead minor works, office fit‐outs, and property‐related projects with a focus on minimal disruption to front‐line service delivery.
* Reporting & Systems: Provide data‐driven reporting and property system management to support high‐level operational decisions.
What You'll Bring:
We are looking for a seasoned property professional who has the technical gravitas to handle complex commercial leases but possesses an approachable, collaborative personality.
* Proven Experience: A strong background as a Senior Property Manager managing complex commercial, government, or specialised portfolios.
* Leasing Expert: Deep technical knowledge of lease‐agreement frameworks and the ability to interpret complex obligations for various stakeholders.
* Operational Savvy: Demonstrated success in contractor management and maintenance coordination for multi‐site operations.
* Project Leadership: The ability to drive minor works and facility upgrades autonomously from inception to completion.
* Cultural Fit: You are described as open, bubbly, and a natural collaborator. You enjoy working within a passionate, mission‐driven team and take pride in clear, proactive communication.
The Benefits:
This is more than a standard property role; it is an opportunity to support an organisation that makes a tangible difference to the lives of South Australians. You will work within a supportive, high‐functioning environment where your senior‐level expertise will be both utilised and celebrated.
