Considered first
Short-notice briefs are filled from the database. If your clearance and availability are current with us, you are in the first conversation, not the third.
For contractors
Join the database that departments call first
We keep a live database of pre-qualified, security-cleared ICT professionals. When a Commonwealth brief lands, that is where we look before we look anywhere else.
Why register
What being on the database actually gets you
Told the truth about rates
We will tell you what the role is paying and whether your expectation is realistic before you invest time in a process.
No resume roulette
We do not flood departments with speculative resumes. Your details go forward for a specific role, with your agreement.
One point of contact
The same account manager from first call through to onboarding and for the life of the engagement.
Who we place
The specialists departments ask us for
If your discipline is on this list and you work in — or can relocate to — Canberra, we want you on the database.

Clearances
A note on security clearances
Already cleared
Tell us your level and whether it is current. Most Commonwealth ICT roles we fill require Baseline or NV1, and defence and national security work often requires NV2 or Positive Vetting. A current clearance is the single biggest advantage you have in this market.
Not cleared yet
Register anyway. Some engagements are open to candidates who are eligible and willing to be sponsored, and we will tell you honestly whether your profile is likely to get there. Never send us clearance reference numbers — the level alone is all we need.
