About JLF

The JLF Group has been in business since 1981 and has established itself as one of Australia's most experienced residential property development and investment organisations.

Over the past four decades, JLF has developed more than 10,000 homes across Australia and currently has a development pipeline of more than 2,000 dwellings throughout Southeast Queensland.

Our mission is simple: to engage, educate and motivate Australians to be all they can be.

Everything we do is guided by our three core values:

- Positivity - We bring energy, optimism and encouragement to every challenge.

- Responsibility - We take ownership of our actions and commitments.

- Proactivity - We anticipate needs, solve problems and take initiative.

As our business continues to grow, we are seeking a highly capable Assistant Development Manager & Executive Coordinator to support the delivery of development projects while working closely with our CEO and Development Director.
