  • Hi, I'm Sarah. We're in Sydney, Australia,

  • and today I'm going to take you through our offices at Domain.

  • We've been in these offices for nearly a year now

  • and I was part of a team that helped organize and determine the fit out.

  • We really wanted to make sure that we tapped into a lot of the beautiful properties that we showcase on our website and in our app every single week.

  • You may find that Domain feels more like a home than an office.

  • Take a look around.

  • This is one of our really great brainstorm spaces,

  • great sessions in the middle, and then we can break out to the various zones.

  • It's not a Friday so there's not a whole lot of drinks here at the moment, but there is free coffee.

  • Can I grab a skim flat white please?

  • Making sure that we had lots of natural plants in our office space was really important as part of the design piece.

  • Not only is it our brand color, but it really does help with inspiration.

  • Up on level five, we have our marketing and editorial teams, as well as our sales and finance teams.

  • Here at Domain we all have a desk, even the CEO. No one has an office.

  • Here on level one, we've got a breakout space. You can see lots of people in action.

  • It gets pretty hectic down here when we've got birthday cake,

  • with over 300 people in the office here, that's a lot of cake.

  • At Domain we host an Innovation Week twice a year.

  • We invite people from all over the business, not just our product and tech teams, to have a say in what might be included in our apps.

  • We work in teams and pitch the ideas to our leadership team and the winning ideas are included in our products.

  • This space was previously a woolshed and it's heritage-listed.

  • There's lots of pillars around which presented some design challenges.

  • Our meeting rooms here on level one are all named after Sydney parks.

  • This one's Centennial Park.

  • We can book the meeting rooms online or on these interactive iPads.

  • We even have a barbecue up on our rooftop space,

  • but in Australia, we call that a sausage sizzle.

  • Up on level five we have a really nice, relaxed and beachy vibe.

  • You can see we've got an aqua bumps here on the wall.

  • And our meeting rooms are named after Sydney beaches.

  • Balmoral Beach.

  • And of course, Bondi Beach.

  • I'd take you in, but there's a meeting going on in there at the moment.

  • We do all sorts of events down here. We've recently launched Domain Academy, and here's one of our events in action.

  • In Australia, we're all obsessed with property. It's the national conversation.

  • So we wanted to make sure in designing this office space that we really made it feel like a premium and homely environment.

  • We've got lots of beautiful furniture here to make you really feel at home.

  • It's not necessarily about things like free popcorn and gimmicky pieces like that.

  • It really is about a premium, beautiful workspace.

  • Thanks for coming to the land down under and checking out our offices at Domain.

  • I've got to get back to it. Bye!
