Work with us

Meaningful work. Great people. Real impact.

At Social Sector Consulting, we believe that great people, sound judgement and fresh thinking can make a real difference.

We're a growing Australian advisory firm working alongside governments, boards, executives and organisations with public and social purpose missions. We help our clients navigate complexity, strengthen organisations and turn strategic ambitions into meaningful outcomes.

Our work is diverse, challenging and grounded in purpose. From strategy and governance to organisational performance, leadership, quality and service improvement, we bring together expertise and practical experience to solve important problems.

We're always interested in connecting with talented, curious and motivated people who share our commitment to making a difference.

Whether you're an experienced consultant, a sector leader considering a new direction, or a specialist with expertise that could complement our team, we'd love to hear from you.

Why work with Social Sector Consulting?

Work that matters.

Our clients include governments, not-for-profits and organisations delivering essential services to communities. You'll have the opportunity to work on complex and meaningful challenges, helping leaders make better decisions, strengthen their organisations and improve outcomes for the people they serve.

Small team. Big opportunities.

We're building a different kind of consultancy. One where experienced professionals are close to the work, ideas are valued and people have a genuine opportunity to influence outcomes. You'll work directly with clients and senior leaders, take ownership of meaningful projects and contribute to shaping our growing business.

Bring your expertise. Broaden your impact.

We value the experience, perspectives and judgement that people bring from different professional backgrounds. Our multidisciplinary approach offers opportunities to work across sectors, develop new capabilities and apply your expertise to a diverse range of strategic and organisational challenges.

Great people. Genuine collaboration.

Our values of authenticity, collaboration and excellence shape how we work with each other and our clients. We believe in open conversations, mutual respect, sharing knowledge and supporting one another to do great work. We take our responsibilities seriously, but we also believe work should be enjoyable, rewarding and built on genuine relationships.

Purpose without the bureaucracy.

We combine the professional standards, evidence and rigour expected of a high-quality advisory firm with the agility and personal approach of a smaller team. We value initiative, independent thinking and practical solutions over unnecessary process. And we believe the best consulting relationships build capability rather than dependency.

Who we’re looking for

We're interested in connecting with dynamic professionals and leaders who bring strong capabilities, sound judgement and an understanding of the environments in which public and social purpose organisations operate.

Our work spans a range of disciplines, including:

• Strategy, systems thinking and organisational planning

• Governance, quality, safeguarding and risk

• Organisational development, workforce and performance

• Leadership development, coaching and change management

• Research, evaluation, policy and social impact

• Service design, improvement and implementation

• Stakeholder engagement, consultation and facilitation

• Project and program management.

We particularly value experience across government, disability and NDIS, aged care, health, community services, First Nations organisations and other public purpose environments. But we're equally interested in people who bring complementary expertise, different perspectives and new ideas.

Above all, we look for people who are thoughtful, collaborative, authentic, and comfortable with complexity. People who combine evidence with practical judgement, build trusted relationships and care about the quality and impact of their work.

Opportunities to work with us

As SSC continues to grow, we're keen to build relationships with people who could contribute to our work, now or in the future. Opportunities may include permanent and part-time roles, project-based engagements, specialist consulting assignments and partnerships with experienced associates.

We're always open to conversations with people whose expertise, experience and values align with ours.
