REA Group

The REA Marketing Graduate Program is more than just a first job – it’s a launchpad for growth, learning, and building lasting connections.     Over 18 months, our Marketing Graduates will rotate through three diverse marketing teams, gaining hands‑on experience in everything from consumer campaigns to customer lifecycle communications.    Curious about what it’s really like? We recently spoke with REA Group Marketing Coordinator, Freya Giles, who has shared her grad journey and top tips for success in the blog linked below.  Read it here ➡️ https://lnkd.in/g9tU3ARJ We'll be hiring our next cohort of Marketing Graduates soon - join the Talent Neighbourhood to stay up to date: https://lnkd.in/gsX6P_ux   #experienceREA #MarketingGrad #LifeAtREA #GraduateProgram 

After a few years away, Sunday Hyatt is back at REA Group — bringing fresh skills, new perspectives, and a renewed appreciation for the culture she missed. From 2018 to 2021, Sunday supported leaders across Product, Technology, Corporate Affairs, and PropTrack in Melbourne and Sydney. Now, she’s returned ready to reconnect, embrace today’s faster pace of work (hello, AI!) and jump into exciting new challenges. We caught up with Sunday to hear what’s changed, what’s stayed the same, and what it’s like coming back to REA. Read her story here 👉 https://lnkd.in/gyM7iTQi #experienceREA

That's a wrap on our 44th Hackdays event! Inspired by this year’s theme, Superheroes: when heroes unite, ideas take flight, teams from across the business came together to transform bold concepts into real prototypes. Throughout the week, they explored new technologies, developed creative solutions, and tackled complex problems—ranging from innovative AI tools to projects creating positive social impact. Congratulations to the winners, and thank you to everyone who participated and supported Hackdays 44 — proving once again that our greatest superpower is our people. Stay tuned – there’s more to come from our epic 44th Hackdays! #experienceREA

Today is R U OK? Day. We know that R U OK? day isn't the only day to check in with each other - that it's an annual reminder, the calendar alert. It's a day to remind us of the signs to look for, and to give us some structure when checking in on each other. Today is also the last day of our Hackdays 44 event, and we've had a team of hackers working away on something that will help us check in with each other, and build those meaningful connections. This year, we're excited to be recognising R U OK? Day with our very own set of "REA U OK?" cards to encourage our people check-in and connect with each other, any day.

Today, we are excited to share the launch of A Home for All Foundation.   Led by the Australian property industry, and backed by REA Group, A Home for All is about stepping up as a collective to build a future where everyone, no matter their circumstance, has a place to call home.  This October, we’re inviting you to spend A Night Without Home, an awareness and fundraising campaign to support an end to homelessness in Australia. Every dollar raised will accelerate the impact of organisations working to end homelessness, through the foundation.  Find out more and sign up to spend A Night Without Home at ahomeforall.com.au

REA Group was again recently named one of Australia’s Best Workplaces 2025 by Great Place To Work® Australia.   Since this recognition is largely influenced by the voices of our people, we wanted to hear from them!    If you're interested in learning more about working at one of Australia’s best workplaces, check out our careers page: https://lnkd.in/gtRf9Y4  #experienceREA

REA Group's CEO Owen Wilson is pleased to share we have been named one of Australia's Best Workplaces 2025 by Great Place To Work® Australia. We've secured third place in the large company category, marking four occasions in recent years where REA has been recognised among Australia's best workplaces. We remain the highest ranked ASX-listed business on the list.   Owen commented: “Finding ourselves in the top 5 over multiple years doesn't happen by accident. It's the result of intentional culture building and the exceptional people at REA who genuinely care about what we do and how we do it. "This is our highest ever placing and this recognition is particularly meaningful as it comes directly from our team members. When your own people consistently rate you among Australia's best employers, you know you're creating something special that attracts the best talent and drives performance."    #greatplacetoworkAU #GPTWCertified #GPTW4ALL #AUBestWorkplaces #experienceREA

Earlier this month, REA Group proudly continued its role as a gold sponsor for DataEngBytes — Oceania’s largest independent conference for data engineers and practitioners. Hosted at The Glasshouse in Melbourne, the event delivered two days of talks, practical insights and valuable networking. Thanks to our sponsorship, 15 REA employees attended, covering sessions ranging from AI, data governance, and geospatial analytics to Kafka optimisation and metadata management. Events like DataEngBytes help us sharpen our craft, challenge our thinking and share knowledge across the data community.

Happy International Dog Day! At REA Group, it’s not just the people who make our workplace special – it’s their furry friends as well. Across all locations, the # office-dogs Slack channel is a much‑loved space for sharing photos – from relaxed Labs in Melbourne to cheeky Kelpies in Perth, and every wagging tail in between. It’s a small but joyful way the team stays connected, no matter where they’re based. A favourite perk in our Melbourne HQ is the ability for employees to bring their dogs into the office. Dogs at REA are more than just adorable companions – they lift spirits, spark conversation and remind everyone to take a breather. Swipe through to meet some of the four‑legged legends who help make life at REA even better. #experienceREA

August is Tech Learning Month for our Tech Graduates and Springboard to Tech Engineers – a mid‑rotation pause to dive deep into learning through workshops, study groups, and projects that help REA squads ship faster. It’s also a time to connect. Grads from our Tech, Marketing, and Finance teams came together for social activities and to give back through volunteering. The cohorts' first FY26 volunteer day was at the Collingwood Children's Farm, a non‑profit that relies on volunteers for big jobs their small team can’t tackle alone. After a sunny lunch at the café, the farm staff showed the group behind the scenes, before setting up to work on a large paddock ahead of their summer events season. Highlights from the day included sunny weather, plenty of laughs, and meeting baby lambs – including one born just the day before. A great day of connection, impact, and doing something completely different together.
