Celebrating Eight Years with Explore Commercial
At the beginning of October, Explore Commercial celebrated eight years as part of the Explore network. To mark the milestone, we caught up with Leader Jordan Miller to hear what led him to Explore, what he has enjoyed most about being part of the network, and a major highlight from the last 12 months.
What made you choose to join Explore when considering the available options for your business?
We were presented, by Ben Chick, with an opportunity to launch the Explore Property Commercial brand (as it was then known) and be the first to branch into commercial real estate in the Explore Group. We were really drawn to the fresh, modern look of the Explore brand and of course, Ben's enthusiasm. It felt like an exciting opportunity to build something new while being part of a progressive and growing network. It was an opportunity we simply couldn't say no to!
What is a key differentiator of the Explore Property Group that you value most?
For us, it's the people and the culture. Explore has created a network of motivated, like-minded business owners who genuinely support and celebrate each other's success. There's a real sense of collaboration, while still having the freedom to build and grow your business in a way that works for you. Having that independence, backed by a strong and recognisable brand and a supportive network, is something we really value.
What has been a significant achievement or highlight for your business over the past 12 months?
One of our biggest highlights over the past 12 months has been being appointed to manage Maroochy Private Hospital, a landmark $100 million development in the heart of the Maroochydore City Centre.
The 10-storey facility spans approximately 11,876sqm and includes six operating theatres, specialist medical suites and allied health facilities. It's an incredibly exciting project to be involved in and a significant milestone for the growth of Explore Commercial and our team.
Being able to watch the development come to life, see the first surgeries take place and attend the official opening was a particularly proud moment. It's not every day you get to be involved in a project of this scale, and seeing it transition from a development into a fully functioning healthcare facility has been incredibly rewarding for our team.
