  • Developing and executing Telstra’s Home Internet residential development strategy, operating model and growth plan.
  • Identifying, assessing and prioritising opportunities across greenfield estates, high-density developments and other priority residential development segments.

  • Building and managing a qualified development pipeline, with clear opportunity stages, measures, account plans and conversion pathways.
  • Understanding development lifecycles and translating them into timely customer acquisition and engagement opportunities.
  • Shaping propositions, commercial approaches and customer journeys suited to the residential development market.
  • Aligning closely with the broader Consumer Home Internet team, and bringing together Product, Channel, Marketing, and operational teams to execute opportunities.
  • Identifying and removing structural barriers to growth, including process, capability and customer-experience gaps.
  • Establishing the measures, insights and disciplines needed to continuously improve and scale the residential development business development model.

  • Residential development experience: Knowledge of the residential development ecosystem, ideally including experience working with property developers, greenfield estates, high-density developments, telecommunications, utilities or adjacent sectors.
  • Business development expertise: Experience originating, shaping and converting complex opportunities, rather than relying on established consumer sales channels.
  • Strategic relationship management: A strong track record of establishing senior relationships with developers, commercial partners or other external stakeholders and creating mutual value.
  • Pipeline management: Experience developing and managing a qualified opportunity pipeline across different stages and time horizons.
  • Commercial acumen: Strong capability in assessing opportunities, shaping propositions and commercial models, negotiating outcomes and measuring returns.
  • Capability building: Experience establishing or scaling a new business development approach, including the processes, disciplines and ways of working needed to make it repeatable.
  • Market orientation: Strong external focus, with the ability to understand market dynamics, identify emerging opportunities and translate insights into action.
