Australia’s population is expanding, our cities are densifying and land is more expensive than ever before. Growth in our inner-city suburbs is placing pressure on every part of our cities, but especially our schools. In this environment, the only way is up. Our National Education Sector Lead, Sarah Slattery explores the cost drivers associated with vertical schools.

With the 2017 WA Architecture Awards and NSW Architecture Awards announced recently by the Australian Institute of Architects, Slattery is excited to have a number of projects that it provided quantity surveying and cost management support for awarded in both chapters.

With Australia’s population ageing, a one-size-fits-all approach to aged care is no longer possible. While most Australians want to ‘age in place’ – and technology and reforms to home care are helping them do so easier than ever before – the retirement living and aged care industries are changing at light speed. 

Slattery is excited to announce that a number of the projects it provided quantity surveying and cost management support for have taken out awards in two separate award programs announced recently.

The workplace should represent a company’s brand and corporate values, and enable staff productivity and efficiency.

While the diversity drive is making a meaningful impact on the number of women in the property and construction industry, it’s time to broaden our focus.
