After 25 years in the industry, it is the day-to-day diversity of working in property management, together with my inquisitive and results-focused outlook, that keep me engaged and challenged. You can plan to do one thing and end up doing the exactly the opposite: no two days are ever the same. As a Precinct General Manager I appreciate the autonomy I have to run a business within a business. This is an industry that creates opportunities for people, as I know well. Having started as maintenance manager, I have run some of Victoria’s biggest assets and have been involved in completed one of the country’s largest property developments (worth over $460 million). Since leaving Vicinity I have spent time working with both JLL and CBRE and fully enjoy working with clients to achieve results in line with all stakeholder expectations.There is great satisfaction in sharing my experience, knowledge and passion for the industry with others in my team and the company as a whole. As a leader I love helping my team develop and encouraging each member to reach their own career goals. I approach my role as mentor and teacher with great passion, promoting team work and a good work ethic first and foremost. Creating a relaxed and collaborative work environment allows us to achieve our individual and collective goals, and I strive to ensure that while we work hard we also have fun and enjoy working together. The ultimate success, as a leader, is to see those you’ve mentored succeed and even surpass you.The people are essential to any success. Being part of a team that has a great culture, experience and work ethic makes each day rewarding. Approachable and open-minded leadership encourages the free exchange of ideas and allows everyone a voice. Though among our peers we are competitive, this competition ultimately results in better outcomes for each of us individually and for the organisation as a whole. Outside of work I enjoy spending time with my family, fishing and gardening. Although my time at home is precious I also love adventures, travelling and seeing new things.
