General Manager of Marketing - Residential Communities | Full-time, In Office | Hawthorn
Redpath Partners is proud to be partnering exclusively with Brown Property Group on this Executive Leadership Team appointment.
The Business
Brown Property Group is one of Victoria's leading private property developers, with over 60 years of experience delivering residential communities, and commercial and retail spaces across the state. Family-owned and values-led, BPG controls every stage of development in-house, from acquisition and project management through to sales, marketing, conveyancing and civil construction via its own delivery arm, Brown Civil.
The current portfolio includes five active or near-term communities across Melbourne's south-east and Cranbourne corridor. It's a genuinely exciting time to step in, with one community currently launching and another moving through final preparation for launch, alongside established projects deep into their sales run and a boutique infill site in planning. Backed by a head office team of around 30, this is a business with genuine scale and real momentum.
The Role
This is a newly evolved position for a commercially-minded marketing leader ready to take BPG's marketing function from project-focused execution to an integrated, data-driven, portfolio-wide capability.
Reporting to the Chief Operating Officer and sitting on the Executive Leadership Team, the General Manager – Marketing will lead the marketing team of 2-4 and own strategy across project marketing, brand, CRM, digital acquisition, market intelligence and marketing operations.
