It was an early start for the Property Council of Australia Victoria event The Construction Road Ahead: Looking Towards 2028, but for those who made the effort, it was well worth it. Held at Zinc at Federation Square (Cnr Princes Walk & Russell St, Melbourne), the discussion painted a picture of Victoria’s construction industry that, while still facing challenges, is showing signs of stability and optimism. Victoria has had a tough run, with insolvencies, supply chain issues, and economic uncertainty causing roadblocks. However, speakers Sarah Tozer (General Manager, Strategy & New Business Building, John Holland), Ewen McDonald (Director, Rider Levett Bucknall), and Nemesia Kennett (Senior Development Director, Development Victoria) emphasised the need for collaboration between developers, builders, contractors, and government to prevent a race to the bottom. With a projected workforce need of 162,941 by 2034, strategic planning is more critical than ever. The Road to Stability The past few years have been bumpy, but I’m seeing signs of modest growth, with residential projects leading the way. Predictions indicate a steady increase in activity across the sector, although factors like interest rates and global trade policies (including potential US tariffs) could influence costs and supply chain dynamics. With insights from The Australia Report and the AUS Crane Index, the event provided a data-driven outlook on where we’re headed beyond 2025. Here are some key takeaways: Workforce shortages need to be addressed. The industry must focus on attracting and retaining skilled professionals to meet demand. High-density and infill development will drive growth. As Melbourne continues to expand, strategic urban planning is essential. Agility is key in the face of global trade shifts. Businesses need to stay adaptable to manage costs and material availability effectively. The Optimism Factor Despite the headwinds, the mood at the event was more ‘looking up’ than ‘doom and gloom.’ If I could tell the future, I’d be very rich, but it seems the general sentiment is stability and a shift towards growth. With a renewed focus on strategic planning, industry collaboration, and workforce development, Victoria’s construction sector is positioning itself for a more stable and sustainable future. Here’s hoping for more green shoots and for Melbourne to continue picking up steam! Let’s Talk About Your Future Needs With optimism returning to the market, now might be the perfect time for engineering clients and candidates to reach out to me for a chat about future needs. Whether you’re looking to strengthen your team or explore new opportunities, having the right connections in place now could set you up for success in the years ahead. Let’s talk about how we can navigate the road ahead together! Event Partners A big thank you to our event partners, Procore Technologies and Rider Levett Bucknall , for supporting this important industry discussion.

International Women’s Day is here, and instead of just posting some lip service like many others, I wanted to offer something of real substance and value. First, a huge thank you to the brilliant Emma Johnstone for sharing her insights with me. Emma is a fantastic engineer and incredibly passionate about making the engineering world more inclusive and supportive. We covered a lot of ground, including women in engineering, her personal experiences, surviving longer than five years in STEM, what companies can do to attract and retain women, and how recruiters can play a role. Key Takeaways from Our Conversation Women in Engineering Are Still Underrepresented: Emma was one of just ten women in her graduating Structural Engineering class of 80. That stat alone speaks volumes about the gender imbalance in engineering. Sexism in Engineering is Still a Reality: Emma has faced inherent biases throughout her career, such as: Being expected to take notes in meetings simply because she’s a woman. Clients addressing male colleagues when she was the lead in the meeting. Being told she wouldn’t be taken seriously unless she stopped smiling so much. Being called 'sweetheart' by contractors and fellow engineers. Being told to “demonstrate emotional resilience” because she cried once. Men Need to Be Open to Conversations: Instead of trying to minimise or ‘fix’ things, men in the industry need to acknowledge and understand women’s experiences. Sometimes, listening is the most powerful thing you can do. Leadership Needs More Women: If your company has no women in leadership, it’s time to change that. If promoting internally isn’t possible right now, provide avenues for junior female engineers to connect with industry leaders through organisations like Engineers Australia or NAWIC NSW (National Association of Women in Construction). Encouragement Starts Early: Schools and universities play a crucial role in getting more girls into STEM and keeping them engaged. Companies wanting to hire more women should partner with universities to create a smoother transition into the workforce. Recruiters Can Help Bridge the Gap: Recruiters should actively listen to female engineers about their experiences and what kind of workplace environment is important to them. They should also encourage hiring managers to openly discuss equality and diversity in interviews so that everyone is aligned from the start. Raising the Next Generation: Emma also reminded me of the importance of teaching my daughter that she can do anything she sets her mind to. That being said, maths is not my strong suit—so if she’s interested in engineering, I might be giving Emma a call for some tutoring! Creating Lasting Change International Women’s Day is a great reminder to have these conversations, but real change happens when these principles become embedded in company culture year-round. Here’s to hoping we’re one year closer to a more equal and inclusive industry—for my daughter and for all women in engineering. Need Hel p? Not sure where to start? Let’s chat.

INDUSTRY NEWS // The Gold Coast’s Benowa Gardens Shopping Centre could soon be unrecognisable, with plans lodged for a bold mixed-use redevelopment featuring three residential towers and a revamped retail hub.
Key highlights of the proposal:
→ Three towers (up to 13 storeys) with 397 residential & short-term accommodation units
→ 10,000sqm of retail + 3000sqm of office & medical suites
→ 1,460 carparks spanning three basement levels & podium parking
→ 4,650sqm of communal open space atop the podium
Designed by @neylanarchitecture and planned by @urbis_au this project is part of a growing trend - reimagining ageing shopping centres into high-density, mixed-use precincts.
With the Gold Coast’s housing market under serious pressure, this development could deliver much-needed residential supply while integrating retail, office, and medical services. It’s a shift towards more sustainable, self-contained urban hubs - but will it get the green light?
Is this the future of suburban retail centres? Let us know what you think! 👇

INDUSTRY NEWS // A brewery in a masterplanned community? Now that’s a project we can get behind!
Long Point Brewing Co is officially underway as part of Place Development’s $425M Kennedy Bay community in WA. Designed by @mjastudio and built by @hoskinscontracting this $13M waterfront brewpub will bring craft beer, great food, and function space for 500 guests - all set to open in 2026.

ADVICE // Quite often, we hear, "We don't work with recruiters!". And we get it - some recruiters have given the industry a bad name.
But writing us off might actually be costing you more than you think.
WE KNOW WHERE THE HIDDEN TALENT IS
→ The best candidates aren’t scrolling job boards - they’re busy working. But we’ve built relationships with them, so when the right role comes up, we know exactly who to call.
WE SAVE YOU FROM HIRING HEADACHES
→ A bad hire isn’t just frustrating - it’s expensive. We don’t just flick over CVs; we vet candidates properly, ensuring they’re a great fit for your business before they land in your inbox.
YOUR TIME IS BETTER SPENT ELSEWHERE
→ You could spend weeks (or months) searching, shortlisting, and interviewing… or you could let us handle it while you get back to running your business.
At Vivid, we aren’t here to sell you a lemon. We’re here to be your partner, to find you the right people, fast, with none of the hiring stress.

VIVID // Architecture Market Update from our mate, Lee Stevens!!
Lee has been out and about visiting clients and catching up with candidates over the last few weeks, and the key takeaway is - everyone is waiting.
✅ Many projects are lined up but still sitting in approval limbo. Until they get the green light, studios remain hesitant to commit to new hires.
✅ As a result, there are still plenty of great candidates on the market, ready to jump in when things pick up.
✅ Interior designers continue to be in demand. Studios seem to have enough work to keep things ticking over but are always on the lookout for top talent.
✅ When things do move, it is going to happen fast. Studios will need to scale up quickly, and candidates will need to be ready to act.
Lee reckons it will either be a waiting game or a non-stop hiring frenzy - no in-between!
If your studio is planning ahead or you are a candidate considering your next move, now is the time to get ready. When the market shifts, those who have done the groundwork will be first in line.

With International Women’s Day 2025 this Saturday... Come on, Australia - we must do better!
This year's theme, "Accelerate Action," reminds us that while progress is happening, it’s far too slow. The latest data from the Workplace Gender Equality Agency (WGEA) shows:
→ 72% of employers still have a gender pay gap favouring men.
→ Only 6% of employers have a pay gap in favour of women.
→ The higher the salaries, the bigger the gap - the most well-paid industries are the worst offenders.
The good news? 56% of employers have reduced their pay gap in the past 12 months.
And what about Architecture and Engineering?
→ Not a single large Architecture or Landscape Architecture firm has achieved a gender pay gap within WGEA’s target range (-5% to +5%).
→ Engineering firms are improving but still report pay gaps as high as 33.6% in favour of men.
Our young daughters (& son) might not know if they want to be designers, architects, planners, or engineers just yet, but we do know this: they deserve to be paid fairly, no matter what career they choose.
It’s time to Accelerate Action for gender equality. 💜

Happy World Engineering Day 2025... for Sustainable Development!
Today, we’re celebrating the incredible impact engineers have on shaping a sustainable and resilient future. From disaster-proofing buildings to designing greener cities, engineering is at the heart of solving the world’s biggest challenges.
To mark the occasion, Engineers Australia is hosting a must-watch webinar with Associate Professor Geoff Boughton HonFIEAust CPEng. He will discuss how engineers can drive sustainability, build disaster-resilient communities, and champion the value of engineering in shaping a better world.
📅 When > TODAY @ 12noon AEDT via webinar
🔗 Registration > via @engaustralia website
At Vivid, we know the future is built by engineers - not by Lego (or is it, though? 😉🤔)!
Whether you're designing the next major infrastructure project or innovating for a greener tomorrow, we’re here to connect top talent with the opportunities that make a difference.

INDUSTRY NEWS // Love it or hate it - the new residential planning rules are coming!
Victoria’s Townhouse and Low-Rise Code is shaking things up. Faster permits, clearer guidelines, and no appeals if your project meets the new "deemed to comply" standards. Great news for developers and councils who want to speed things up… but is it a win for good design and neighbourhood character? 🤔
Here’s the key takeaway: if you’re in planning or architecture, these changes will shape how you design, approve, and deliver projects.
→ Faster approvals for townhouses and apartments up to three storeys.
→ Stronger sustainability & tree canopy requirements (green is good, right?).
→ Overlooking protections scrapped for bedrooms - privacy concerns, anyone?
→ More certainty, less red tape - a boost for business and much-needed housing supply.
Whether you think it’s an urban planning revolution or a race to the bottom, one thing’s certain: these changes will drive business activity for developers, planners, and architects alike.
What’s your take? Are these reforms a win for housing supply or a challenge for neighbourhood character?

Who knew!!
In our latest post, penned by our marketing manager (yup, she gets on all our case about this kinda stuff, too), we dive into why it’s important.
In an industry where reputation is everything, a strong personal brand isn’t just a nice-to-have - it’s essential. Whether you're designing the next landmark project or ensuring the structural integrity of a major build, your personal brand is what sets you apart.

INDUSTRY NEWS // As 2024 hit the brakes on economic activity, construction has kept its foot on the gas, paving the way for recovery into 2025. So, could infrastructure jobs lead the charge for economic growth this year?
James Elliott from Red Dog Group, a leading Gold Coast construction and civil engineering company, says big projects like the Pacific Highway upgrade and Light Rail Stage 3 are key players, alongside local initiatives like boat ramps and industrial developments.
These infrastructure efforts aren’t just laying foundations – they’re setting the stage for job creation and economic revival. It's the calm before the storm, with growth poised to follow every poured slab and finished track.
Could infrastructure actually be the backbone for Australia’s economic comeback?

VIVID // Let's talk strategy... but let's make it golf! ⛳️🤔
The Vivid boys - Nick and Lee - hit the Metropolitan Golf Course for a cracking morning of strategy (and some cheeky swings) last week.
But Melbourne had other plans. Yep, 4 seasons in one day! The weather gods decided to mock them with a massive downpour halfway through, which saw the game end prematurely. By the arvo? Sunshine. Typical Melbourne, hey?
Still, golf was the real winner of the day. We'll be back to finish those last 9 holes (and our strategic banter).

INDUSTRY NEWS // In case you haven’t heard, there’s a massive new $500M Build-to-Rent tower in the works, and it’s turning heads in Melbourne’s Docklands!
@lendlease has just announced it is partnering with Japanese firm Nippon Steel Kowa Real Estate (NSKRE) to make this towering marvel happen, but guess who’s been on the architectural drawing board since late 2023? That’s right, @coxarchitecture
Cox has been shaping the plans for this beauty from day one, transforming an irregular-shaped site at Victoria Harbour into a sleek, modern living space.
With Council already endorsing the project, it’s full steam ahead. Expect a design that’s as slick as it is sustainable, blending aesthetics with urban living like a fine-tuned symphony.
This is more than just a building; it’s about creating a space that feels like home but also makes you stop and say “Wow!” every time you walk in the door.
Build-to-Rent projects are on the rise, and Cox is at the forefront of making them both practical and breathtaking.
Architects and Engineers, what’s your take on Build-to-Rent reshaping the urban landscape?

VIVID // Brisbane, you’ve been a whirlwind!
Lee and Nick have just wrapped up a jam-packed few days in Brissie, and what a trip it was! From a few rounds of golf at @royalqueenslandgolfclub to meeting some top-notch architecture and engineering clients – they barely had time to catch their breath!
The cherry on top?
An amazing networking event at @felonsbrewingco with great company, productive chats, and a few well-earned drinks. There are no happy snaps to prove it, but we hear it was a ripper night.
