Alisha Filmer works at the intersection of policy and delivery within one of the state’s largest housing programs at Homes NSW. She plays a key role in progressing projects through a complex public sector environment, with a clear focus on delivery outcomes, governance, and accountability.

Through her involvement in the Homes NSW Modern Methods of Construction (MMC) program, Alisha brings practical, on-the-ground experience in navigating how new construction approaches can be integrated into established government processes, including procurement and program delivery frameworks.

Her work is grounded in a strong focus on people—particularly improving tenant outcomes across social housing and contributing to broader efforts addressing homelessness. This lens shapes how she approaches delivery, ensuring that innovation remains connected to real community impact.

Known for her straight-talking approach, Alisha is equally committed to listening and working constructively with industry. She brings a clear-eyed perspective on what is working, what needs to shift, and where there is real opportunity to move faster and more effectively.

Alisha will share candid insights on how industry can engage effectively with government, and how current policy and delivery settings are evolving to support the broader adoption of innovative construction methods.
