James has worked on a number of large-scale strategic redevelopment sites with a specific focus on large brownfield regeneration sites in East London and Melbourne.
At Urbis, James provides clients with strategic planning advisory services with a focus on state-significant projects, such as the Suburban Rail Loop, 2026 Commonwealth Games, and Twelve Apostles Visitor Precinct.
