Our Services

Dark rain clouds over the barren landscape of the Australian Outback, home to Petraichor Partners.

‘Petraichor’ means ‘the smell of rain’ and in the bush, this is a metaphor for building potential. We will help you achieve your potential and create that change in the weather that gets the results you need.

We can help create the right conditions for you to reimagine organisational challenges and unlock new solutions and potential innovation. 

We are organisational and community development professionals with more than 25 years of first-hand senior executive experience in the Government and Not-for-Profit sector.

We don’t see ourselves as experts but work alongside you and use our experience to help you harness the intrinsic strengths within your organisation and in the communities in which you live and work.

We understand the unique challenges and complexity of rural and remote settings because we live there, and we can help you achieve organisational innovation and provide culturally safe solutions brokerage.

We have excellent knowledge of National and State Policy settings and reform, we understand funding frameworks, and support an evidence-based approach to enable transformative management in practice.

We have deep respect for Aboriginal and Torres Islander First Nations people and draw directly on this knowledge and wisdom through our respectful partnerships and affiliations.
