Different Mindset. Different Opportunity.

At KordaMentha, we're known for doing things differently. And we're known for coming up with bold new ways to help clients solve their most complex commercial problems.

We help clients throughout their lifecycle. We help them grow and maximize value. We help protect them against financial loss and reputational damage. And we help them recover value in tough times.

At KordaMentha, we provide the opportunity to work on interesting and varied engagements, where no two days are the same.

By joining us as a graduate, you will become part of a unique, creative, and entrepreneurial team that works together to solve complex business problems. You will be given the opportunity to engage in a supportive environment where you're encouraged to ask "what if?" and "why not?" to find new ways to help clients grow, protect and recover value. Best of all, you'll learn from a diverse group of people while we invest in your study and training.

Your opportunity: Real Estate

We are currently seeking expressions of interest for people with a different mindset to join our Real Estate teams for our 2022 graduate intake. We will be recruiting across the country, so please let us know what state you are interested in.

Our specialist real estate advisory group helps clients to grow, protect and recover value in their real estate portfolios. We advise on, develop and transact real estate – our own, our clients, and in conjunction with joint venture partners. With a unique set of real estate consulting and insolvency capabilities, we have advised upon or transacted over $14 billion in real estate projects.

What you'll be doing

As a graduate in our real estate group, you'll gain exposure to a wide range of property assets and will learn advanced property fundamentals from a passionate team with backgrounds in property development, valuations, sales and marketing, property law, contract administration, funds management, and investment banking. While no two days will be the same, you can expect to:

  • work on a wide range of asset classes
  • work alongside our restructuring team, reviewing and assessing properties involved in business turnarounds
  • manage distressed property transactions
  • assist in new development opportunities the firm is completing
  • research real estate investment opportunities on behalf of high net worth clients
  • attend meetings with clients and key stakeholders
  • participate in business development and marketing activities

But it's not all about work. You'll be given a buddy to help you navigate office life as you settle in. You'll choose a mentor who will help guide your career. We host regular events and activities, bringing together our close-knit team in a friendly and relaxed environment so you can get to know the people behind the professionals. You'll also become a member of Accelerate, our young professional networking group.

You can also make a positive difference in your community through regular charity and industry events. Whether it's volunteering at local food rescue venues or participating in a stair challenge or bike rides to raise money for children's charities, you can get involved and give back.

About you

You will be a recent graduate or student in your final year of study and will have:

  • a property related degree
  • a real passion for property
  • excellent analytical, technical, and communication skills
  • an ability to think outside-the-box
  • strong interpersonal qualities
  • a focus on delivering excellent client service
  • strong academic results
  • eligibility to live and work in Australia (Australian citizens and permanent residents only)

If you submit an expression of interest, we will contact you when applications have open!

I have been on a voluntary administration since the start of my role in the statutory, cash flow and creditor correspondence streams for the most part. Much of my role is administrative and all my outputs are checked by at least one level of management.

Pros and cons of working at KordaMentha

Pros

  • Opportunities to grow and learn. Smaller compared to big 4. Heavy access to senior leadership. Opportunities to get involved in building business/strategy. CA classes paid for.

  • The people and events. It's always enjoyable to see everyone in the office. Especially as a grad, it's great to have so many people around you that are willing to help out and support you.

  • The Office space is premium and one of the better aspects of the employer, with scenic views in the heart of the city, they could not be better.

  • Company is quite social and flat culturally. You can talk to senior people comfortably. Nothing toxic or negative. People are generally highly professional and sociable.

  • Managers are exceptionally talented individuals with a willingness to both learn and help, praise and recognition are given.

Cons

    • Team is still building to have the right middle management/procedures/training in place for grads/trainees.

    • Occasionally, you may be required to work some late nights if you have been placed on a demanding engagement.

    • Busyness as a grad can be very variable.

    • Pay is not great for some of the hours that you are required to do.

    • Not enough structured training content delivered to graduates in the Consulting team.
