About the business

Our client is a well-established WA building brand, part of a major national construction, property and finance group.

Over the past decade, the business has built a strong niche working with developers of house and land estates, medium-density infill, retirement villages and mixed-use projects. Its recent work spans government social housing, community housing and seniors living.

The business is now in a significant growth phase. Seniors and social housing are a major focus: retirement living, land lease, downsizer, aged care and community housing.

You represent the builder to educate developers on the capacity and capability the builder has to help achieve their targets in the built form environment.

- Convert the established pipeline into secured projects, prioritising work that fits the business’s capability, margin and capacity

- Identify and develop opportunities across retirement living, land lease, downsizer, aged care and social housing
- Improve how client and pipeline information is captured and used, including CRM discipline
