The Property Council of Australia’s Retirement Living Council has promoted Oliver Luckhurst-Smith from National Policy Manager to National Policy Director, recognising his growing role in shaping the sector’s advocacy agenda.
Oliver joined the Retirement Living Council in September 2023 after serving as Executive Manager in the Office of the Adelaide Lord Mayor and as an adviser to the South Australian Government.
Reflecting on his promotion, Oliver said:
“The past two years at the Retirement Living Council and the broader Property Council of Australia family have been incredibly rewarding, working with our wonderful member companies whose dedication to their residents enriches the lives of older Australians every day.
“At a time when retirement communities are helping to address some of the nation’s most pressing care and housing challenges, I’m excited to continue our strong research and advocacy work to pursue better regulation and increase consumer and investor confidence for the sector.”
His promotion comes as the sector farewells Tomai Morris, who stepped down last month after seven years as Commercial Director for Retirement Living.
