South Australia

Home Our Divisions South Australia

The property sector directly accounts for almost 11 per cent of South Australia’s economic activity. We’re advocating for greater infrastructure delivery and increased inbound investment – both critical to ensuring continued economic development and prosperity for all South Australians. Sustainable development and increasing quality, affordable housing choice also remain central to our focus.

Through our work, events and programs, we deliver value for all our South Australian members to uplift the industry and help grow our beautiful state.

Promoting growth opportunities for South Australia underpins our priorities, and sensible tax reform is essential to achieving this. We’re advocating for a nation-leading planning and development framework, continued leadership in sustainable development initiatives and greater local government efficiency. 

Vibrant cities and towns, choice of housing and investment in the growing retirement living sector are also key to our advocacy and South Australia’s economic development.

The role of the South Australian Division Council is to best represent the collective interests of South Australian members. Members are nominated by industry peers and elected for a two-year term, with the South Australian President also securing a position on the National Board. Division Councils are responsible for all local initiatives, and also leverage the Property Council’s campaigns to achieve state based results. The current Division Council representatives commenced their tenure in March 2023.

 

Committees meet every four to six weeks to discuss issues and projects relevant to their expertise and the focus of the Committee. Being selected as a member of a Property Council Committee gives you the opportunity to help shape the future and influence the organisation’s advocacy agenda. Members have the opportunity to contribute to important, focused industry discussions while building their professional networks and knowledge. 

As part of our 40-40-20 commitment to gender equity, all our Committees comprise a minimum of 40 per cent female representatives. Committee members are appointed for a two-year term, with the current Committees commencing their tenure in February 2023.

500 Women in Property

500 Women in Property helps our members promote female talent and empower them to advance in the workforce. The program aims to accelerate more women into leadership positions in the property industry through sponsorship of high-potential talent. Men and women can get involved as sponsors, and women as participants.

Champions of Change

The Champions of Change Coalition is a globally recognised strategy for advancing gender equality and building respectful, inclusive workplaces. We established the Champions of Change Property Group in 2015 to advance this cause in the sector, and today the group involves leaders who oversee more than 25,000 employees.

Girls in Property

Girls in Property is a program that informs high school students of the various career paths available across the property industry. It aims to generate a more diverse pipeline of talent by encouraging more women into the sector. Students gain insights into the industry and hear from leaders about what a career in property looks like.

We are deeply grateful to our Corporate Partners for their contributions. These partnerships enable us to deliver quality work and experiences for our members, which in turn benefits the entire South Australian property industry.
