About us, our background and what we do

Consulting. Evolved.

Inner Circle – we are similar, but very different.

Founded in 2006, Inner Circle is a globally recognised consulting organisation that helps ASX200 clients realise strategic value through the successful delivery of their portfolio, program and project transformations.

We specialise in delivering large, difficult and complex business and technology programs successfully. We do this by handpicking, managing and rapidly mobilising cohesive and collaborative teams of senior subject matter experts that support our clients throughout the life of their change initiatives.

We built Inner Circle recovering large business-critical projects, and our reputation by staunchly supporting our clients. Today, we provide an extensive range of high-value IT and Business services and solutions – each delivered using the unique approach we are famous for.

We specialise in program delivery like the large consultancies, but our approach is very different.

We were born out of frustration with large consulting vendors that seemed more focused on change requests than they were in driving transformation success. Rather than repeat what they do, we opted to evolve what consulting was. We don’t have change request metrics, sell-through targets and aren’t measured by “bums on seats”. We don’t sell the A-team and then switch them onto a more important program and backfill them with juniors and left-overs from the bench (and ask for a change request because you no longer have the capability).

We focus on having your back by supporting you and your program. We utilise our experience to provide the transparency and visibility you need to make faster and more informed decisions to better deliver the value the business expects. Your success is our success – there are no other metrics.

Welcome to the Inner Circle. Consulting. Evolved.

Capability

We are a team of 450 proven specialists recognised for our insight, support, collaborative approach, specialist teams and deep expertise across a wide range of industries including financial services, superannuation, telecommunications, logistics, manufacturing, retail and public service. We are the the new way of consulting.

Consultants

Each consultant is personally recommended by a colleague and undertakes a rigorous 14-hour due diligence and peer review process before being admitted into the Inner Circle. More than 40 percent don’t make it through this phase, ensuring only the best make it into our teams and onto your floor.

Experience

On average, each Inner Circle consultant has 18 years of senior experience – they have written books, been keynote speakers at industry events, fought the wars, battled the fires and rescued the kittens from the trees (and they have the scars to prove it). They are recognised as specialists for a reason – they get results.

KEY DIFFERENCES

INDEPENDENCE YOU CAN BANK ON

We are not linked to any vendors, don’t have sell-through targets and don’t have any emotional attachments. We align to your interests (not someone else’s), provide the transparency you want, the visibility you need, and keep the other consultancies in check.

TAILORED TEAMS, DELIVERING WITHIN DAYS

Our consultants know each other, providing a unique ability to hand pick teams, mobilise them and have them onsite within days. This familiarity means collaboration and outcomes come quicker, and they can deliver from day one (while the others are still squabbling over chairs).

GLOBALLY RECOGNISED UNIQUE IP (WE'RE FAMOUS)

We don’t roll in the A-Team during the sale and mobilisation, only to switch them out to a more important program and backfill them with juniors, interns and backpackers (and then make a change request because you no longer have the capability). No team swaps, no juniors.

BEST BANG FOR YOUR BUCK

Inner Circle are globally recognised for our unique IP in transformation methodologies by CEB - a Gartner owned global best-practice company advising to businesses globally. We invest heavily in pragmatic IP to benefit our clients, ensuring complex problems are delivered faster with less risk and better outcomes.

We’re ready to start, are you?
