scouted. are once again partnering with one of Australia's fastest-growing private developers, with a portfolio of residential developments that has expanded from its Victorian roots into multiple other Australian states. Backed by strong financial support and an active acquisition strategy, this group encompasses internal Development, Finance, Sales, Marketing and Operations teams, and has invested heavily in its executive leadership over the past 12 months to support its next stage of growth. As such, they are now on the hunt for a 'Head of Real Estate' to lead the strategic direction and growth of their internal project marketing business.

This role will own the full sales and marketing strategy as well as P&L accountability for their internal sales function, reporting directly to the Chief Operating Officer. Day-to-day, you will initially lead the sales and marketing execution across a national project pipeline; longer term, the mandate is to build this function into a standalone project marketing business, creating a genuine alternative to already established players in the space. The right candidate will be an experienced real estate and property professional who can lead and manage a team inclusive of a National Sales Manager, Project Marketing Managers and Project Sales Managers. Your ultimate task will be to identify and implement successful processes, procedures and systems, ensuring that the Real Estate business can operate independently of the Developer brand. This opportunity calls for someone with a genuine business builder mindset, someone who wants to shape and scale a commercial operation nationally, not just run or monitor a sales desk.

Key Responsibilities

• Set and deliver sales targets, margin objectives and business growth initiatives
• Manage sales performance against project feasibilities, budgets and timelines
• Structure and negotiate builder, wholesale and bulk deal (including SMSF and syndicate) agreements
• Build the external market presence, brand and industry relationships needed to establish a standalone commercial operation
• Manage real estate licensing, trust account and compliance obligations across multiple states

The Successful Candidate will have

• Senior business leadership experience in property sales and marketing, ideally with national exposure
• Demonstrated P&L ownership and commercial decision-making abilities
• A track record managing both sales and marketing functions across large-scale residential or masterplanned projects
• Working knowledge of feasibility models and licensing/compliance requirements across jurisdictions
• A background in masterplanned communities or house & land packaging is ideal

For the successful candidate, the salary on offer will be circa the $250,000 + Super mark, with a 10% STI and Long Term Incentive structured around the incumbent's experience, skillset and value add - a remuneration package we feel is reflective of this role being a truly rare opportunity in today's market. Opportunities such as this, to lead a standalone business within an established national property development group, do not come up very often (if at all)!
