About the opportunity

Lead the NSW Health property disposal readiness program, shaping a structured and consistent approach to preparing a diverse portfolio of surplus property assets for market. You’ll bring together commercial insight, specialist due diligence skills and strong governance to maximise portfolio value and outcomes.

An opportunity to shape how the program operates, not simply manage individual transactions. Working across varied and high-profile property matters, you’ll design and improve a consistent approach to due diligence, risk assessment and reporting, turning complex findings into clear recommendations on disposal readiness, and guiding projects through governance and approval processes.

Collaboration is central to the opportunity. You’ll build alignment with senior leaders, government agencies, councils, service providers and consultants, while leading property professionals and technical experts to deliver agreed time, cost and quality outcomes.
Reporting to the Program Director, Property, you’ll combine a disposal-readiness focus with collaboration across HI’s acquisitions and commercial advisory projects.

This is a fixed term full-time opportunity for a two years period. Remuneration will be determined with the successful candidate. Please note that as Health Infrastructure is an organisation of NSW Health, the successful applicant must reside in NSW or be willing to relocate if appointed.

This recruitment may be used to appoint to similar future roles (ongoing or temporary), or to create a Talent Pool for roles that may arise over the next 18 months.

About you

You’re an experienced and collaborative property professional who enjoys turning complex property challenges into practical commercial decisions. You bring extensive experience leading transaction programs across diverse property types, including disposals, acquisitions and commercial transactions, from inception to completion. Your expertise spans opportunity assessment, valuation, town planning and due diligence, including procuring and managing specialist advice. You understand NSW Government land transaction, governance and reporting frameworks and can translate technical findings into clear, evidence-based recommendations.

You combine sound commercial judgement, resilience and the ability to navigate competing priorities, shifting requirements and complex stakeholder interests. You lead collaboratively, develop your team and maintain integrity and transparency in highly visible property dealings. Strong communication and negotiation skills will be essential in resolving complex risks and building alignment across senior stakeholders.
