- Demonstrated leadership experience managing and developing small teams, ideally across multiple locations.
- Proven ability to manage project budgets, programs, procurement, contract administration and risk across multiple concurrent projects.
- Strong commercial acumen, including an understanding of retail lease structures, fitout contributions, incentives, handover conditions and make-good obligations.
- Excellent stakeholder management and negotiation skills, with the ability to balance commercial outcomes, compliance requirements and design quality.
- Strong written and verbal communication skills, including reporting to senior stakeholders.
- Proficiency in AutoCAD or Revit (review level), Bluebeam or similar markup tools, and MS Project or equivalent scheduling software.
- Current Australian Driver's Licence and willingness to travel regularly between assets.

What You’ll Do

- Lead and manage the tenancy design approval process, ensuring retailer fitouts meet design guidelines,

- Review and provide feedback on retailer concept designs, developed designs and construction documentation.
- Manage retailer fitouts from lease execution through to store opening, including programs, access, inductions, milestones and handovers.
- Deliver landlord works, tenancy amalgamations, splits and base-build upgrades required to support incoming tenants.
- Manage project budgets, contractor engagement, variations, progress claims and final accounts for landlord-funded works.
- Coordinate consultants, contractors and certification processes to ensure compliance with all applicable regulations and standards.
- Partner closely with Leasing teams to provide fitout advice, landlord works estimates, delivery timeframes and technical guidance during deal negotiations.
- Work collaboratively with Centre Management to minimise operational impacts and support successful project delivery.
- Protect income commencement dates by proactively identifying and removing delivery obstacles.
- Lead, coach and develop two Tenancy Delivery Coordinators, establishing consistent processes and standards across both assets.
- Prepare and maintain project reporting, forecasting and pipeline updates for senior stakeholders and the Head of Projects.
