Our expertise in Government & Development
Government and donor-funded programs don’t recruit like commercial businesses. Every appointment carries expectations of probity, compliance, value for money and local benefit — and it often has to happen in remote, complex locations on a fixed program timeline.
We’ve spent years delivering exactly this: trusted by AIFFP and the National Capital District Commission, and supporting DFAT-funded programs across PNG and the Pacific. We understand donor requirements, public-sector accountability and the realities of working on the ground — because we’re on the ground, in Port Moresby, not managing it from offshore.

Local recruitment at scale
National talent pipelines and graduate / job-ready programs
A program’s reputation with its donor rides on the people delivering it.
Donor-funded work comes with obligations a standard recruiter rarely understands: probity and transparency in selection, value-for-money justification, local-content and inclusion targets, and audit-ready documentation. Get it wrong and it’s not just a vacancy — it’s a finding in the next program review. We recruit to those standards as a matter of course, with the process and documentation to stand up to scrutiny.
Delivering in complex locations
From Port Moresby to the provinces — including locations as demanding as Bougainville — we mobilise people where programs actually operate. Local networks, logistics and security awareness, and genuine community engagement mean we fill the roles that offshore recruiters quietly hand back.
Workforce solutions beyond recruitment
Most programs need more than a shortlist. As one team, we also:
-
Employ and pay program staff through our Employer of Record and payroll services — compliantly, with or without a local entity
-
Manage work permits, visas and mobilisation through our in-house immigration team
-
Build local capability through training and graduate programs
-
Run national talent pipelines that meet localisation and inclusion goals

Public investment context — current at 2026

- DFAT-funded programs continue to prioritise localisation and inclusion, lifting demand for GEDSI, monitoring & evaluation and program-management specialists.
