This is anindependent contractor appointment , expected to commence inmid-September 2026 .

The Development

The completed project will comprise96 permanent residential apartments across two stages , offering a mix of well-appointed two and three-bedroom residences.

Caretaking contract valued at up to $120,000 p.a. once fully established

Initial six-month subcontract, with strong potential for ongoing long-term engagement for the right operator

This is a modern, well-designed residential environment with strong long-term occupancy potential.

The Caretaking Role

The successful contractor will be responsible for theday-to-day caretaking, presentation and general oversight of the common property and shared facilities , ensuring the development is maintained to a consistently high standard.

The development includes:

- Two residential buildings
- Communal areas
- Swimming pool
- BBQ and recreational facilities

There areno prescribed office hours , allowing flexibility in how services are delivered,



provided all contractual obligations and service standards are met consistently.

The contractor may personally perform the duties or engage and manage suitably qualified staff or subcontractors.

All major plant and equipment required for the role will be supplied, with approved consumable costs reimbursed.

Mandatory Live-In Requirement

On-site residence is a mandatory condition of this appointment.

A modernthree-bedroom unfurnished apartment within the complex will be made available to the successful contractor/s.

This apartment will be provided under aseparate residential tenancy agreement , with rent payable atmarket rates .

Accordingly, the on-site residence is acontractual requirement and is not included as part of the caretaking remuneration package .

A dedicatedground-floor office and adjoining meeting room will also be provided for operational use.

Additional Letting & Property Management Opportunity

For suitably licensed and experienced applicants, there is also the opportunity to provideon-site letting and property management services to owners within the development.

As the complex is designed for permanent residential living, there is strong potential tobuild and grow a stable letting portfolio as occupancy increases .

The letting and property management function will operate as anadditional, separate revenue stream to the caretaking contract , under a revenue-sharing arrangement.

Applicants seekingcaretaking only are also encouraged to apply .

A currentQueensland RLA / property management licence will be required for applicants wishing to undertake the letting and property management component.



This is not required for caretaking-only applicants.

Full commercial details will be discussed confidentially with shortlisted candidates.

This opportunity will suit:

- Experienced residential building caretakers
- Management rights operators
- Property or facilities managers
- Experienced couples seeking a joint operational role
- Established caretaking or property management businesses
- Operators with the capability to manage staff or subcontractors

As an independent contractor, the successful applicant will be required to hold anABN, appropriate insurances and a suitable business structure .

- Strong Southern Sunshine Coast location
- 52 apartments already completed and operational
- Growth to 96 apartments in Stage 2
