This is a role owning what happens after the Occupation Certificate — purchaser handover, defect rectification, and the strata building bond process. You'll work directly alongside the Head of Construction, who has 20+ years in residential development. On the technical and contested calls you'll be supported, not thrown in.

Prepare buildings for handover and manage pre-settlement inspections

Close out PSI defect items before settlement

Be the first point of contact for purchasers through the defect liability period

Work with the builder to compile and issue handover packs: O&M; manuals, warranties, as-builts, keys

Build and run the master defect schedule across live projects in Excel

Log, categorise and track every reported item through to closeout

Coordinate rectification with head contractors, subcontractors and maintenance team, including access and resident notification

Draft defect vs. maintenance assessments for review by the Head of Construction

Run the strata building bond process — lodgement, inspector appointment, interim report,



final report and release of bond
