As Head of Capital, I am responsible for a newly established investment platform – Goldfields Capital Partners (GCP). GCP will aim to provide attractive risk-adjusted real estate development returns via a pipeline of high-quality opportunities from the Goldfields Group. We are seeking to build on Goldfields’ existing network of trusted capital partners including, global institutions, financial advisers, family offices and high net worth individuals. We will offer investments across the capital stack and at various points in a development’s lifecycle. Goldfields is one of Australia’s leading private real estate development businesses.

We are a diversified business, with experience across residential apartments and townhouses, master planned residential communities, office towers and mixed-use retail projects. Across 2020 and 2021, Goldfields has continued its expansion into new sectors including, landmark office and hotel projects, retail town centre developments and the establishment of a JV to take advantage of ‘build to rent’ residential opportunities in the USA. Enjoying a highly successful track record across 11 years of operation, Goldfields has completed projects with an end value of circa $850m and has an active development pipeline with a potential end value of more than $3.0bn, with highlights including: • 627 Chapel Street (VIC): a 24,000 sqm A-grade office tower with an end value of circa $300m. • 587 Church Street (VIC): a 200 key 5-star hotel with an end value of circa $160m. • Raleigh Street, Windsor (VIC): a luxury 350 apartment project with an end value of circa $285m. • 871-877 Pacific Highway & 641-653 Pacific Highway, Chatswood (NSW): two separate mixed-use residential tower development projects, delivering a total of 500 apartments and a combined end value of circa $800m.
