About the role

Brisbane

An outstanding chance has arisen to lead the strategic management, investment performance and sustainable growth of the QIC Property Fund (QPF), an established core real estate club fund with a portfolio of major and super-regional shopping centres and an active development pipeline.

As Fund Manager- QPF, you will take ownership of the Fund’s investment strategy, portfolio construction, capital management and asset strategies, ensuring decisions remain aligned with investor objectives, governance requirements and the Fund’s targeted risk and return profile.

This is a commercially focused role requiring deep engagement with investors and a detailed understanding of the Fund’s assets. You will oversee fund and asset performance, portfolio strategy, valuations, liquidity, debt, hedging, development activity and material capital allocation decisions. Strong financial modelling and analytical capability will be critical, together with the ability to translate complex information into transparent recommendations and timely decisions.

Working across Asset Management, Development, Capital Transactions, Capital Markets, Finance, Risk, Legal, Tax and Client Solutions & Capital, you will bring together diverse perspectives and maintain clear accountability for Fund outcomes. You will also act as a trusted senior contact for investors, advisers and consultants, providing transparent communication and reliable delivery against commitments.

About the team

The QPF team operates within QIC Real Estate’s Funds Management platform and works closely with specialist teams across the broader business. The environment is collaborative, commercially rigorous and highly connected, with a strong emphasis on investor outcomes, disciplined decision-making and collective accountability.

You will lead the Fund’s operating rhythm, including portfolio performance reviews, investor engagement, governance forums, business planning and strategic decision-making. The role also provides the opportunity to contribute to broader Funds Management priorities, cross-fund initiatives,



capability development and the continued evolution of QIC Real Estate’s investment management platform.

At QIC, collaboration, communication, accountability and leadership underpin the way teams work together to create shared value for clients, people and communities.

About you

You are an experienced real estate investment or funds management professional who combines strategic thinking with strong attention to detail. Comfortable moving between fund-level strategy and asset-level performance, you understand how portfolio construction, capital structure, valuations, development activity and investor priorities come together to drive long-term outcomes.

Investor relationships are central to your approach. You communicate clearly, remain responsive when priorities shift and build trust through sound judgement, transparency and consistent delivery. Highly organised and process-driven, you can manage time-sensitive matters without losing sight of the Fund’s broader strategic objectives.

You bring the confidence to challenge assumptions respectfully, navigate competing perspectives and make well-reasoned commercial decisions. Just as importantly, you enjoy bringing people together, building capability and creating clarity around priorities and accountability.

A strong interest in data, technology and contemporary analytical tools will allow you to strengthen portfolio insights, scenario analysis, reporting and decision-making across the Fund.
