2024 Women Leading in Tech Award
Cecille Weldon BA DipEd, GradDipLing, is considered Australia's foremost expert on residential energy efficiency + property value + the property marketing sector.
With a background in real estate, franchising, research, communications, and education, and a Proptech entrepreneur in her own right, she helps property professionals to understand what the new consumer wants from them and how a changing climate, rising running cost and impending regulation are about to change the way they do business.
With an 11% uplift in property value on offer and new commercially exciting property data beginning to flow through the system about energy efficiency property features (including energy ratings) it’s not surprising Cecille is passionate about building capabilities across the residential property sector.
Property and new property upgrades are a key target for new regulation as our homes need to be healthy, cheaper and more comfortable all year round to respond to the challenges of the future.
Cecille provides timely insights for the property, technology and data sectors on the new value opportunities catalysed by residential energy efficiency at point of sale or rent and what this means for their customers and the homes they market, manage, upgrade and finance.
She holds a BADip Ed and is an experienced and award-winning course creator and facilitator and was a member of the technical committee for the recent “property services skills review” which resulted in new course electives for real estate agents.
Her additional qualifications (Graduate Diploma in Linguistics) in the study of meaning and the relationship between language and social values informs much of her unique approach to message framing, strategy, brand, business development and trend forecasting.
