The opportunity

Calidus Group is partnering with a residential property developer to appoint a Marketing Manager as the business prepares for its next phase of growth.

With a growing pipeline of projects in South East Queensland, this is an opportunity to establish the marketing approach from the outset. You’ll shape the business’s local brand presence, develop distinct identities for its residential projects and create campaigns that connect with buyers.

You’ll also have the opportunity to build the team, budgets and processes needed to bring those plans to life. For someone who enjoys taking ownership and seeing the results of their work, there is considerable scope to influence the business as it grows.

The role

Reporting directly to the CEO, you’ll lead marketing strategy and delivery, with a particular focus on branding, project launches and off-the-plan sales.

Understanding the Australian residential market will be central to your success. You’ll translate project features into compelling stories about lifestyle, location and community, helping buyers see themselves living in the developments.

Day to day:

- Brand strategy and development: Shape the business’s local brand positioning and develop project identities, messaging and visual direction, ensuring consistency across buyer touchpoints.
- Project marketing and launches: Develop and deliver marketing plans covering campaigns, digital content, sales collateral, launch events and ongoing sales support.
- Marketing budget ownership: Create the marketing budget and individual project launch budgets, present recommendations for approval, allocate spend and manage costs and performance.
- Building a support team: Identify resourcing needs, make the business case for additional support and help recruit, develop and lead the marketing team as project activity grows.
- Creative and agency management: Brief and coordinate shared marketing resources,



creative specialists and external agencies.

You’ll have access to specialist marketing, creative and technology resources, with responsibility for setting priorities and bringing those resources together.
