We have experienced extensive growth even through our lockdown due to COVID-19, with 15 new staff appointed since March 2020, growing our team to 36. Key appointments have been made across Development, Operations, Marketing & Commitments, Communications, Community Engagement, Partnerships, Finance, Placemaking & Experience, and Publishing divisions.

Assemble will be offering resident services which are designed to make residents’ lives more convenient, enjoyable and cost effective. Part of these services is our bulk-buying initiatives where we will be partnering with companies to leverage economies of scales within our buildings, in order to offer products and services at a reduced rate to residents. Our goal is to ultimately reduce our residents’ cost of living, so that living in an Assemble apartment is more cost-effective than living elsewhere. 

Sophie is focused on the intersecting worlds of art, design, architecture and emerging technologies, and how they provoke new ideas for living together. She has studied social design at Design Academy Eindhoven, which instilled in her the accountability and responsibility design holds in the built and digital environment.

Our team took a moment together to celebrate International Womens Day 2020 over breakfast. We‘re lucky to work with an incredible team of hardworking women inside and outside our office (team members, residents, consultants or collaborators!) who continue to inspire us daily.

With a 17 year background in student accommodation and build-to-rent projects both in the UK and Australia, Dan has joined our team with experience in managing diverse communities and delivering resident focused models.

We’re excited to welcome Sarah Matzouranis to our growing team as Assemble’s financial coach. Sarah takes a holistic approach to her financial coaching and is a strong believer that good money management is essential for our overall wellbeing.

At Assemble we‘re lucky to work with an incredible team of hardworking women who inspire us daily. On International Women’s Day 2019 we asked all our female colleagues ‘What advice would you give to your younger self?’.

Assemble joined Make Ventures to brave the sweltering heat in Melbourne to participate in the 2019 Corporate Triathlon, with two teams in the fun relay event. Many thanks to our team mascot Yoda, who cheered us on and joined us on the podium for a team photo!
