Bullet points

  • Strong pipeline of works with repeat business and plenty of returning clients

  • Work in an evvironment where you'll be supported and encouraged daily

About Our Client

A robust and diverse business that has not only stayed afloat during COVID, but has actually grown. This medium-sized organisation delivers both client-side projects, as well as delivering their own developments, and are looking to continue to expand!

What sets this business apart from other clients, is their unique focus on people - they don't hire based on sector, but they do hire based on emotional intelligence, commercial acumen, and your ability to take responsibility for your own results. With a strong leadership group at the helm, you'll be supported at every step of the way. The business wants their people to succeed, so they invest time into building YOUR personal branding, training and development.

Job Description

As the Development Manager, you'll be responsible for:

  • Appraising new land opportunities for development potential
  • Completing feasibility studies, and due diligence when assessing sites
  • Land acquisition, negotiation and town planning - negotiate the purchase and sale of properties, including appointing solicitors and external consultants
  • Overseeing the design management process, including design documentation, approvals and budgets
  • Overseeing and supplying all development plans to Councils and Local Authorities
  • Prepare all documentation for the financing of the projects, and liaising with banks
  • Managing new build, refurbishment and redevelopment projects from end to end, including masterplanning, tendering, appointment of contractors/consultants, overseeing construction, and managing defects/liability periods

The Successful Applicant

To be successful in this role, you must have demonstrated experience as a Development Manager, with strong commercial knowledge. This position is not suitable for someone who is a Project Manager, looking to step into a Development Manager role. You will also:

  • Have outstanding communication skills that allow you to build relationships with clients, agents, consultants, Project Managers and other key stakeholders
  • Have the confidence to control a room, but also the humility to treat people with courtesy and respect
  • Be well-connected in the Development space. Personal relationships and networks are essential
  • Be commercially driven - have the ability to look for opportunities, win business, think critically and deliver the most profitable and high-quality development possible
  • Be a strategic thinker, natural problem-solver, and display a high level of emotional intelligence
  • Experience using EstateMaster will be highly advantageous

What's on Offer

You're going to be pushed - hard. This is the type of role that will be perfect for someone who is hungry, ambitious, and eager to prove themselves. This company values people first, and they will take the time to invest in your training and development. This organisation is striving to be one of the most well-respected Property Development groups in the country, and they push themselves to be great. The successful Development Manager will:

  • Receive unmatched training and development
  • Have access to developments across a range of different sectors - you won't be segmented or pigeon-holed
  • Work in a highly-stable, robust business with a significant pipeline of works
  • Work with private clientele - meaning you won't need to tender all day long to win work. A lot of it is repeat business.
  • A salary of $100k - $130k depending on the candidate suitability
