Corroboree Group

What Corroboree Group does

Corroboree Group is a privately held, majority Indigenous-owned Australian organization founded in 2015 and headquartered in Fyshwick, ACT. It operates four not-for-profit operating subsidiaries — Corroboree Talent (recruitment and payroll), Corroboree FM (commercial cleaning and facilities management), Corroboree Security Services (mobile patrols, static guarding, crowd control, concierge, and surveillance), and Corroboree Services (civil construction specialising in underground communications, water, and gas infrastructure) — plus one for-profit entity, Corroboree Security Pty Ltd, that holds security licences across seven Australian jurisdictions. The group reports 51–100 employees and is registered with Supply Nation, aligning with the Australian Government's Indigenous Procurement Policy.

The unified commercial offering is the Indigenous Pathways to Employment Program (IPEP), a self-funded methodology that combines mentorship, funded qualifications, and ongoing participant support. All profits are reinvested into IPEP and the operating subsidiaries, anchoring the group's positioning as both a professional services provider and an Indigenous employment outcome vehicle. The group is ISO 9001, ISO 14001, ISO 45001, and ISO 27001 accredited through Corroboree FM and holds named government clients including the ACT Government, AIATSIS, the Museum of Australian Democracy at Old Parliament House, the Australian Electoral Commission, and Indigenous Business Australia. Marketing and lead generation are channel-light, relying on direct public-sector engagement and organic social (Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, YouTube, and a company blog).

Revenue is not publicly disclosed, and pricing is not listed. The go-to-market is direct enterprise and government sales, leveraging IPP set-aside eligibility, multi-jurisdictional security licensing, and a national recruitment footprint spanning ACT, NSW, QLD, and VIC. Customer concentration skews toward Australian federal and territory government accounts, with adjacent exposure to private-sector facility and event security demand in the ACT region. Leadership comprises Managing Director Colin Williams (40+ years in Indigenous outcomes), CEO Jim Andriopoulos (30+ years in facilities and project management), and Director Brendan Moyle (former Local Aboriginal Land Council chair with co-led NSW and Commonwealth Indigenous economic development framework experience).
