  • No limits: we help open doors, break glass ceilings, and develop career pathways to become a GC
  • You call the shots: strong focus on work–life balance; options for on-site or remote work, full-time or part-time assignments, or set-term commitments
  • You're never on your own: access to a supportive community, mentoring, knowledge resources, and regular training
  • Ways Of Working: we deliver, are creative, inclusive, care & collaborate, and are trusted
  • We're global: local, interstate and international opportunities; in late 2023 LOD joined forces with Consilio to form a broader global team
