Development Manager

The Company
Our client is a nationally recognised, ASX-listed property developer with a long track record of delivering master-planned communities across Australia.

The Role:
Join the Melbourne team and take ownership of a key Victorian project.

• Lead the delivery of a large scale community
• Manage rollout of 200–220 lots per year (traditional housing & townhomes)
• Build and maintain strong builder and stakeholder relationships
• Mentor and lead a dedicated Assistant Development Manager
• Report to senior management and take accountability for your project
• Exposure to an additional smaller scale residential development in close out phase
• Manage an ADM, dedicated to your project. 

Why Join this business?

• Stability and credibility of a listed developer
• Direct access to executive leadership and board-level engagement
• Long-term project pipeline with multi-year visibility
• Collaborative, high-performing Victorian team
• Family Friendly Workplace certified
• Exceptional paid parental leave
• Performance incentive opportunity

This is an opportunity to take ownership of a key community development within a structured, well-capitalised organisation that values leadership, delivery and long-term career growth where success isn’t defined by years of experience but ability.

 The Candidate

You Will Bring:

• land subdivision experience as a DM (essential)
• Confidence/the ability to  present at JV/board level
• Commercial acumen and stakeholder management capability
• Leadership mindset with a genuine interest in mentoring and developing others
• Town house experience (advantageous but not essential)
• Ability to “hit the ground running” in a fast-paced collaborative environment.
• A collaborative mindset and the desire to further their own professional development in a supportive work setting with access to phenominal mentors and leaders. 

Why This Role Stands Out

• Flagship project of scale with a solid pipeline 
• JV exposure
• Clear portfolio ownership
• Leadership responsibility
• Hybrid flexibility with structured team culture
• Career-defining opportunity within a listed developer
