Our Team

With decades of construction experience across residential, commercial and specialised housing, George oversees every project personally. He is a qualified carpenter holding unrestricted NT, WA and Victoria building licences and a Diploma in Building, and brings extensive expertise in high-rise commercial and residential work across the Territory.

He has developed a personal touch when it comes to designing his projects – one of his crowning design achievements was a Bali-style house in Bayview that has been widely acclaimed as unique and daring, capturing the true Territory style of living.

George’s ability to run multiple complex projects concurrently reflects the depth of his technical and operational expertise – giving Habitat the capacity to deliver several builds at once without compromising the personal, hands-on approach clients expect.

Paul drives the strategic direction of Habitat NT, overseeing business development, partnerships, procurement and commercial operations.

He served 25 years in the Australian Army, rising from private to the rank of Major, and commanded 300 soldiers on a nine-month deployment to Iraq, for which he received a Chief of Army commendation. During the East Timor intervention, Paul transitioned into humanitarian assistance, managing the construction of schools, health facilities and infrastructure in remote locations – it was during this period that he developed his passion for building.

Paul holds a Diploma of Building and Construction and builder licences in the NT, WA, Victoria and Queensland, and is often sought after for advice by other builders and developers. He is meticulous in his attention to detail and tireless in his pursuit for excellence and will not rest until a project is complete.

He also serves as Treasurer of the Darwin RSL and Chairman of the Darwin Services Club.
