Queens Wharf Brisbane represents a transformative urban renewal initiative that reimagines Brisbane’s riverfront through a sophisticated integration of mixed-use and entertainment precincts, blending cultural, hotel, residential, and destinational environments into a cohesive and vibrant cityscape. This landmark development sets a new benchmark in urban design and operational excellence, showcasing innovation in both architectural vision and delivery.

In my capacity as the 50% owner for Star TSEG ASX, as senior client-side design and development executive for the Queens Wharf project, I spearheaded the strategic leadership of design delivery, alongside ensuring our financial and operational performance framework for The Star Entertainment Group was met.

My role was pivotal in collaborating with the Consortium partners, in our aspirational vision with stringent planning approvals, complex state government relationships, and the demanding realities of commercial construction execution. This required a nuanced understanding of architectural strategy, project feasibility, and risk mitigation, expertise on hotel and resort projects, and ensuring every phase of development adhered to the highest standards of quality and long-term sustainability.

Through rigorous governance, proactive problem-solving, and an unwavering commitment to excellence, I contributed to a project that not only redefines Brisbane’s urban fabric but also delivers measurable, strategic value to all stakeholders involved. The Queens Wharf project stands as a testament to embedding in-house design and development leadership as an essential driver of project success in the complex property and construction landscape.
