The Role
As Senior Executive Director Development (Masterplanning), you will play a pivotal role in shaping the vision, structure, and future development of this multi-billion-dollar city-scale programme.

- Lead the engagement with international masterplanning and urban design consultants to guide deliverables and ensure world-class outputs.
- Support investment, asset, and development teams by embedding flexibility and commerciality into the masterplanning framework.
- Present to executive leadership and governance committees, acting as a key advisor on planning and development strategy.
- 20+ years of experience in masterplanning, development strategy, or large-scale urban development, ideally gained on complex, mixed-use, city-scale programmes.
- Proven experience in a senior leadership capacity with direct involvement in shaping and delivering integrated masterplans.
- Deep understanding of the interface between planning, design, infrastructure, and commercial development.
- Experience working with government entities, major developers, or global consultancies.
