Women of Collins Square
Date Published: 23rd Feb 2026
Meet the women that shape Collins Square, from day-to-day operations to tenant support and everything in between.
This International Women’s Day, we’re shining a light on the women in our management team: the people who keep the precinct moving, support our community, and help create a workplace environment where tenants enjoy coming to work.
Hannah Mehmet General Manager
As General Manager of Collins Square, Hannah plays a pivotal role in shaping the overall direction of the precinct. With a strong focus on people, experience and placemaking, Hannah leads the team with clarity and purpose, ensuring Collins Square continues to evolve as a connected, welcoming, community-focused and high‑performing workplace destination.
What does International Women’s Day mean to you: “As a working mum of two girls, International Women’s Day is a crucial reminder of the importance of gender equality in the world. It’s a day to acknowledge how far we have come, but also how far we still have to go. As the General Manager of Collins Square, it’s also a day to celebrate all the wonderful women in our management team and Precinct who I have the great pleasure of working with every day.”
Elaine Hong Precinct Property Manager
Elaine currently leads the Property team and oversees the effective management of Collins Square, ensuring it operates efficiently, safely, and in line with overall objectives. Elaine’s always‑positive energy, warm smile and helpful nature assist her in building strong and trusting relationships with stakeholders.
What is the best piece of advice you have followed throughout your career: “Be comfortable being uncomfortable.”
Megan Griffin Senior Marketing Manager
Megan leads the marketing and engagement strategy for Collins Square, overseeing everything from major precinct campaigns to tenant communications and brand storytelling. Known for her strategic thinking and collaborative approach, Megan helps bring the precinct to life through meaningful experiences.
How have you built resilience throughout your career: “There will be many ups and downs throughout your career. Using the curveballs thrown at you as a learning experience rather than dwelling on the negative is how I built resilience throughout my career. Talking to mentors is also a huge help. You will sometimes feel alone in your negative experiences but talking to others will make you realise how common they are, and how they have overcome them so you can too.”
Sophie Bell Senior Property Manager
Sophie has been an integral part of the Property team for over four years. Her attention to detail, friendly nature and deep knowledge of the precinct help ensure tenant requirements are always managed seamlessly.
What advice do you have for other women entering the Property industry: “Listen, observe, and ask questions. You don’t need to have all the answers. Be someone who follows through and is not afraid to say, “_I don’t know, but I’ll find out.” That kind of consistency becomes your leverage. Seek out mentors and build strong relationships with peers. The people beside you are not your competition, they are your future collaborators. Emotional intelligence is an asset. Use it deliberately. Cultivate wisdom through curiosity and let your excellence speak for itself.”
Karen Morales Precinct Services Manager
Karen leads the teams responsible for keeping Collins Square operating at its best every day. From presentation to safety and service, her work ensures the precinct feels welcoming, professional and well‑run.
Who is a woman that inspires you and why: “My mum of course! She’s so brave, I can’t imagine how she would have felt leaving her family and friends in Chile back in the 70’s for my brother and I to have a better upbringing. Not knowing any English and having to start all over again is truly inspiring. I’m forever grateful for what my parents sacrificed for us and the values she’s instilled in me with working hard and not being afraid to go for what your heart desires.”
Sylvia Heeney Head Concierge
As Head Concierge, Sylvia leads with warmth, professionalism and a genuine care for people. She plays a key role in shaping the day‑to‑day experience of everyone who enters Collins Square. No one knows the precinct like Sylvia does.
What advice would you give your younger self: “To believe in myself and not be afraid to step outside your comfort zone to try something new, no matter your age. You never stop learning, every day is different and will bring something new to your life.”
Tina Fazioli Facilities Supervisor
Tina plays a vital behind‑the‑scenes role, ensuring the buildings operate efficiently and reliably. Her practical knowledge and problem‑solving mindset help keep the precinct running smoothly.
What is a common misconception about women in your industry: “A common misconception about women in facilities management is that women are more suited to support roles rather than to the operational, technical or leadership side of the industry. Women in facilities management bring skill, talent and leadership, recognising that ability isn’t defined by gender.”
Laura Davy Marketing Assistant
Laura supports the marketing team across campaigns, events and communications. Her enthusiasm, creativity, exceptional social media skills and can‑do attitude help bring Collins Square activations to life.
What does having female mentors as you begin your career mean to you: “Having female mentors around me as I navigated corporate life gave me a safe space to manage work–life balance and career growth. They've helped me overcome self-doubt, avoid common mistakes, and empowered me to back myself with confidence in the moments that shape my career.”
We also acknowledge the many other women across our management team, retail partners, services and wider community whose contributions help Collins Square thrive every day.
Together, these women reflect the heart of Collins Square, a precinct built on collaboration, respect, care and community.
