How Mirvac Made Mentoring Core to Their People Strategy
with Chantelle Mansour,
Learning & Organisational Development Manager, Mirvac
Mentorloop Impact Award Winner 2025
When mentoring at Mirvac was ad hoc and inconsistent, opportunities to connect and grow were limited to a lucky few. Today, thanks to Mentorloop, mentoring is embedded across their people strategy — powering programs like Amplify, Mirvac Masters, and their Intern Program. By giving structure, visibility, and scale to mentoring, Mirvac has turned it into a culture-shaping force that connects people, develops leaders, and drives career growth at every level.
Mirvac is a leading Australian property group reimagining urban life, creating places where people can live, work, and play. With a strong focus on culture and growth, Mirvac wanted a way to make mentoring accessible, structured, and impactful for every employee.
“Before Mentorloop, mentoring at Mirvac was happening in small pockets. It was informal, inconsistent, and not something everyone could access.”
From Paper Guides to Powerful Connections
At one point, Mirvac’s “mentoring program” was literally a paper guide nobody knew how to use. Mentoring was ad-hoc, with no clear framework or support.
The turning point came with the launch of the Amplify talent program. To support rising stars, Mirvac needed a platform that could connect people, create structure, and track outcomes.
The result? Senior leaders — including members of the Executive Leadership Team (ELT) — signed up as mentors. The energy shift was immediate.
Impact That Speaks for Itself
Mirvac quickly saw mentoring transform from a one-off initiative into a cultural pillar.
- Mutual growth: In a leadership campfire session, mentees shared powerful stories of career clarity and confidence — while mentors reflected on what they were learning.
- Cross-functional connections: Matches like the Payroll Manager with the GM of Cybersecurity showed the unexpected value of diverse perspectives.
- Steady growth: Mentoring now runs through multiple programs — Amplify, Mirvac Masters, the Intern Program — with new signups flowing in from across the business.
- Real-time feedback: Using Mentorloop Sentiment, the team tracks relationship health, celebrates successes, and makes timely adjustments.
“That moment confirmed we were building something meaningful. Mentoring wasn’t just a program — it was becoming part of our culture.”
Why Mentorloop Was the Right Fit💡
Mentorloop gave Mirvac the structure and scale they were missing:
- All-in-one hub: Mentors and mentees connect, set goals, track progress, and share feedback in one place.
- Sentiment analysis: Real-time insights into relationship health.
- Alignment with strategy: Mentoring now underpins Mirvac’s People Strategy pillars — Join, Grow, Belong.
- Support from the Mentorloop team: Onboarding kits, training resources, and marketing support helped Mirvac embed mentoring deeply and confidently.

What Role Does Equity and Equality Play in Your Mentoring Program?
The right mentoring program should level the playing field to empower entire cohorts of people: workplaces, member associations, social groups and educational institutions. Equality should be a cherished value so that every individual can thrive—whoever they are, whatever their background, however they worship or whomever they love. But we can’t arrive at equality without it’s often forgotten partner, equity.
What does a Mentoring Program Coordinator do?
Being a Mentoring Program Coordinator is an incredibly rewarding experience that positively impacts the lives of many. And while mentoring programs don’t fully run themselves (even though Mentorloop can do a great deal of the heavy lifting!), they do require a point of contact that can steer the program in the right direction for the organisation that is running one.
