The Company

This organisation is a privately owned property group with a long-standing presence in the Australian market. Known for delivering high-quality, design-led developments, they focus on creating places that reflect cultural identity, sustainability, and long-term community value. With a multi-sector portfolio and a pipeline of large-scale precinct projects, they offer team members the chance to contribute meaningfully to complex, city-shaping work within a collaborative and values-driven environment.

The Role

An exciting opportunity is available for a capable and driven Assistant Development Manager to contribute to a major mixed-use precinct. This role suits someone who thrives in a delivery-focused environment, with a clear passion for urban transformation and the built environment.

You'll work closely with an experienced Development Manager and Project Director to deliver key civil, landscape, and social infrastructure packages, including a $20M corridor transformation and a new childcare centre. You'll also have early involvement in a new apartment development. Beyond these, the company has a number of land holdings which secure their future pipeline.

This role blends day-to-day project management with strategic involvement across feasibility, stakeholder engagement, and consultant coordination offering broad exposure and genuine opportunity for growth.


Key Responsibilities

Assist in the full project lifecycle: feasibility, design, approvals, delivery, and handover

Manage defined packages within a major precinct development (e.g. infrastructure and childcare)

Support feasibility modelling and financial reporting

Coordinate consultants, contractors, tenants, and authorities

Prepare contracts and maintain documentation

Support planning and design processes with technical consultants

Contribute to broader project functions including sales, marketing, leasing, and risk


About You

2-3 years of experience in a similar role, ideally within residential or mixed-use development

Sound understanding of Victoria's planning system and consultant coordination

Experience or exposure to construction delivery environments

Strong analytical skills, with confidence in financial modelling and feasibility work

Clear and professional communication style, with a team-oriented mindset

Degree in Property, Construction, or a related discipline


Why Apply?

This is a rare chance to be embedded in a landmark precinct project with substantial social, commercial, and environmental ambition. You'll work with a highly respected team and gain genuine end-to-end exposure across multiple assets and project types.
