Essence established a Melbourne office in early 2020, and with the city in lockdown for the past couple of years, this was its first opportunity to celebrate the progression the office had made.
Since opening, the office has expanded to a team of twenty employees who are working with some leading-edge clients including Altis Property Partners, Frasers Property, ISPT, Vicinity Centres, and the VSBA.
