Job description

Aspen Group is a growing ASX-listed property business that focusses on solving Australia’s housing and accommodation shortfall across its three main segments;

Living (Build to Rent, Student Accommodation, Co-living and Land Development),

Lifestyle (Land Lease and over 50s rental communities) and

Holidays (Tourism and Workforce Accommodation).

Aspen has astrong track record of delivering, industry leading, highly attractive returns, through disciplined investment, development and active operational management. The current Executive team has been in place at Aspen since 2019 and led the companyto achieve greater than 20% average Return on Equity per annum in addition to greater than 20% compound earnings growth over the period.

Our success is driven by an integrated business model combining four key capabilities:

Owner: We invest directly in our properties and projects, maintaining control over our assets and investment decisions.

Operator: We actively manage our properties to maximise performance, rather than simply collecting rent.

Developer: We create quality, value-for-money accommodation through efficient development and redevelopment.

Capital Manager: We make disciplined investment, funding and capital allocation decisions to optimise returns and manage risk.

We are looking for an ambitious, commercially minded graduate to join our WA team and help drive the continued success of the company.

Working directly with senior leadership, you will gain practical experience in how a growing property business operates, makes commercial decisions and delivers results. The role will be exposed to all areas of the business in WA (Operations, Development, Transactions and Capital Management).

Your primary focus will be supporting the operations and development teams that service our WA portfolio which represents approximately 40% of Aspen’s total portfolio nationally.

We are aiming to hire a candidate that we believe has the potential to become a senior leader in the Company.

What You’ll Be Doing

Commercial analysis: Analyse property performance, identify opportunities and support financial and investment decisions.

Business planning: Contribute to budgets, forecasts and strategies to improve performance.

Operational improvement: Work with site teams to identify challenges, develop solutions and implement improvements.

Projects and development: Support capital projects, property improvements and development initiatives.

Performance management: Monitor results, track priorities and drive delivery of agreed actions.

Business growth: Improve systems, processes and reporting to support continued growth.

This is a hands-on role and suits a candidate that is willing to embrace a broad range of challenges.One day you might be developing a financial model for a large-scale development; the next you could be visiting a regional property and working alongside a Property Manager resolving an operational challenge.

Why Join Aspen?

Work directly with senior leaders and gain exposure to commercial decision-making.

Build experience and get exposure to operations, property investment, finance and development.

Take on increasing responsibility with the potential to progress into senior management.

Join a growing ASX-listed national business with an ambitious, collaborative team.

Benefit from an attractiveremuneration package, including:

• Highly competitivebase salary,
• + Short-Term Incentive (STI) - Annual cash bonus*
• +Long-Term Incentive (LTI) - Annual Share/Equity scheme participation*

*STI and LTI are subject to performance, eligibility requirements and applicable scheme rules however Aspen has a strong track record of rewarding employees through these incentive structures.

Who We're Looking For

We are interested in high-potential individuals at the beginning of their careers, rather than candidates with extensive industry experience.

You will be completing or have recently completed a university degree in Commerce, Finance, Economics, Property, Engineering, Architecture, Law or a related discipline.

We're particularly interested in candidates who demonstrate:

Drive and initiative: You seek opportunities, take ownership and follow through.

Commercial curiosity: You want to understand how businesses work and what drives performance.

Analytical ability: You are comfortable with numbers and can turn complex information into practical solutions.

Leadership potential: You communicate confidently, exercise sound judgement and positively influence others.

Adaptability: You learn quickly and embrace unfamiliar challenges.

A practical mindset: You are equally comfortable analysing data, engaging with people and solving operational problems.

• Strong written and verbal communication
• Analytical skills and proficiency in Microsoft Excel
• Valid driver's licence
• Willingness to travel regularly across metropolitan and regional WA

This is a permanent, full-time opportunity. Flexible part-time arrangements may be considered for exceptional candidates completing their university studies.
