Own a portfolio of four community shopping centres, based in the inner west. A role with real variety and real autonomy, no two weeks the same. Backed by local teams across every site, you are never on your own. Build your career alongside a major institutional client and the world's leading real estate business.

This is a rare multi-site retail management role for someone who wants genuine ownership of their portfolio and the variety that comes with it. On behalf of IFM Investors, you will manage four community shopping centres across Sydney, working from an inner west base with travel to other sites reimbursed. If you are a shopping centre professional who is ready to stop waiting for the next step and actually take it, this role was built for you.

In this role, you will:

  • Manage day to day operations across four community shopping centres, keeping presentation, safety and compliance standards consistently high across each site.
  • Build trusted relationships with retailers across the portfolio, supporting onboarding, lease administration, arrears management and lease compliance.
  • Collaborate with the marketing team on campaigns, community events and initiatives that drive foot traffic and retailer performance.
  • Drive casual mall leasing and identify new income opportunities across the portfolio.
  • Assist with budgets, expense monitoring and monthly owner reporting, with a sharp eye on operational efficiency and centre performance.

About You

You know your way around a shopping centre and you are ready for more responsibility. You do not need to be told what to do next because you already know. You build relationships quickly, keep multiple plates spinning without losing your cool and take real pride in the centres you look after.

Experience in shopping centre management or a senior centre operations role, with exposure to the full range of centre responsibilities. Strong organisational skills and the ability to manage competing priorities across multiple locations without dropping the ball. A natural communicator who builds rapport quickly with retailers, customers, contractors and internal teams. A valid driver's licence and willingness to travel across your Sydney portfolio, with travel reimbursed. Current NSW Certificate of Registration, or willingness to obtain.

Why CBRE?

An inner west base with the variety and autonomy of a four-centre Sydney portfolio. Local teams supporting you at every site, so you are always backed up. Exposure to the full breadth of retail property management alongside an institutional client and quality assets. A people first culture with wellbeing programs, paid parental leave and genuine pathways to grow.
