About Ventia
Ventia is one of Australia and New Zealand’s largest essential services providers, supporting critical infrastructure and communities through long-term partnerships. We bring together deep technical capability, strong local teams and trusted subcontractor networks to deliver safe, reliable and value-driven outcomes for our clients.
The Opportunity
Ventia is seeking an experienced Registered Building Practitioner to take on a hands-on, operational leadership role supporting the delivery of a significant Victorian-based property maintenance project.
This role is central to successful outcomes and will work closely with operational teams, subcontractor partners and client representatives. While the position carries director-level accountability, it is strongly delivery-focused, with an emphasis on practical leadership, collaboration and continuity of service.
This will be a permanent position and based in Victoria.

- Maintaining close engagement with client and superintendent representatives to address issues early and pragmatically.
- Ensuring compliance with regulatory, contractual and governance requirements.
- Working with the broader leadership team to ensure appropriate succession and continuity planning for critical operational roles.
- Contributing to ongoing improvement in safety, quality, cost and program performance.
What We’re Looking For
- Registered Domestic Building Practitioner (Victoria) with strong property maintenance and operations credibility.
- Senior operational leadership experience within complex or high-volume building or maintenance environments.
- Demonstrated ability to lead and influence a diverse workforce, including internal teams and subcontractors.
- A practical, outcomes-focused mindset with the ability to maintain consistent involvement over the life of a long-term contract.
- Strong stakeholder management skills, with the confidence to engage constructively on performance, risk and delivery challenges.
- Must be based in Victoria and able to maintain residency for the duration of the engagement.
- Willingness to step into a Director role within the business as part of this appointment.
Why Join Ventia?
- Play a key role in delivering essential services that make a real difference to Victorian communities.
- Be part of a collaborative, values-driven organisation that prioritises safety, integrity and performance.
- Enjoy long-term stability on a major program with genuine scope to shape outcomes.
- Work alongside experienced operational leaders, supported by Ventia’s national scale and systems.
