Vicinity Centres

One of the ways we empower and promote female talent is through our participation in the 500 Women in Property program, an annual initiative led by the Property Council of Australia. Since joining the program, 16 talented women from Vicinity including Victoria Reboton, Clare McCarthy, Emma Jacoby, Sharon Chung have been connecting with their sponsors and industry peers to network and invest in their career development. In line with this year’s International Women’s Day theme, we asked participants what they think will spark positive change for women in the property industry. Top of the list of things that will #accelerateaction and help women thrive: flexible policies for all and more structured mentoring programs like 500 Women in Property.
