About us
Nation Partners isn’t your typical consulting firm. From day one, our aim has been to build a business that people want to be a part of – a business that is driven by a sense of purpose and connection with its people, communities and the environment. Our purpose is to work with likeminded clients to influence a better and more sustainable future for society and the planet. With extensive experience in government, financial and professional services sectors, our team knows what it takes to build a business with the capabilities, skills and culture that will sustain us into the future. Our people are what set us apart – we have attracted some of the brightest minds from government and private sector organisations. Having the right people in our business allows us to work on some of the most complex projects, while also building a culture that engages our team and attracts new people. Since becoming a certified B Corporation in 2015, we have worked to balance profit with purpose and to create a business with a strong environmental and social conscience. In 2021, we established the Nation Partners Giving Fund to support communities across Australia to design and lead interventions that address the injustices they face, whilst tackling climate change. Through the fund, we’re committed to directing 4% of all profits to social and environmental causes carefully selected by our team. We are constantly searching for how we can do business better; with the principles of distributed leadership, empowerment and self-management at our core and a reward system in place that transparently sees us all share in the business’ success. Nation Partners acknowledges and pays respect to the Traditional Custodians of the land on which we work and our work reaches. We acknowledge and pay our respects to Elders past, present and emerging. It was, and always will be, Aboriginal land.

Last week, our Heritage team had the privilege of attending the Victorian Archaeology Colloquium, where we connected with Traditional Owners, heritage practitioners, and academics, sharing valuable insights into Victoria's rich archaeological landscape.

It’s been a big year at Nation Partners. We've expanded our capabilities and established a presence in Queensland, working across diverse industries on purposeful projects that drive positive change. We're grateful to have collaborated with new and existing clients, industry leaders, Government, Traditional Owners, and local communities to create meaningful impact and sustainable outcomes. Our commitment to being catalysts for change continues through our B Lab Australia and Aotearoa New Zealand certification and Climate Active membership, proudly supporting initiatives like the Aboriginal Carbon Foundation's cultural burning project in the Northern Territory. 2024 saw us strengthen our industry engagement through active participation in forums with Australasian Land & Groundwater Association (ALGA), VicWater, Smart Energy Council, Gippsland New Energy Conference, Australian Offshore Wins Association and ACLCA, as well as joining important conversations at the Global Nature Positive Summit 2024. As we face the environmental and social challenges ahead, we're encouraged that our work is making a difference. We embrace our responsibility to shift perspectives and demonstrate how business can be a powerful force for good in creating a more sustainable world. We're reimagining our Giving Fund, recognising that our commitment to directing 4% of profits to climate action can create even greater impact through collaboration and collective action. While we focus on driving change at scale, we also celebrate local initiatives, like planting 2,000 trees in Altona for the 'More Trees for a Cooler, Greener West' program. To our clients, colleagues and partners, thank you joining us this year. Take care over the holiday season, and we hope you enjoy relaxing and recharging with loved ones. See you in 2025!

"Business can be a force for good that goes way beyond ESG principles and commitments. We are seeing a shift in the nature of business as we move from shareholder to stakeholder value, where the planet and nature are seen to be core stakeholders." We're delighted to share Matt's recent interview with ALGA (Australasian Land & Groundwater Association). We deeply value our involvement with ALGA and their vital role in bringing together environmental professionals across our region to protect and restore our land and water. In this insightful conversation, Matt discusses his journey from environmental scientist to founding Nation Partners, shares perspectives on ESG evolution, and explores how businesses can drive meaningful environmental and social impact.
