PCA’s 500 Women in Property

This year, the Property Council of Australia (PCA) accepted all Centuria nominees for its 500 Women in Property program. This initiative is designed to help existing PCA members to identify and champion women in their organisation or business sphere, who they believe would benefit from further networking and professional development opportunities. The program aims to accelerate more women into leadership positions in the property industry through sponsorship of high-potential talent.

Congratulations to the Gimhanee, Sarah, Stef, Arna and Carolina who are accepted nominees sponsored by Centuria leaders.

Additionally, five Independent Non-Executive Directors from the Centuria Capital Group boards have offered to mentor these candidates in conjunction with their participation in the PCA program. Centuria believes this added layer of mentorship provided by female directors further supports our PCA 500 Women in Property participants and hopefully assists them in their career progression.
