Partner Network
Good people know good people.
Kindtide is deliberately focused on People, Talent and Search. When a client needs specialist expertise outside that remit, we would rather introduce someone excellent than pretend to be all things to all people.
The Kindtide Partner Network brings together trusted specialists we know, have worked with and would confidently put in front of our own clients or family.

Tell us what you are trying to solve. If it sits outside Kindtide, we may be able to connect you with someone in our network that we trust.
Kindtide acknowledges the Wadawurrung People and the Wurundjeri Woi Wurrung People of the Eastern Kulin Nation as the Traditional Custodians of the lands and waters where we live and work across the Bellarine Peninsula and Melbourne.
We recognise their enduring connection to Country and pay our respects to Elders past and present. We honour the strength, wisdom and continuing cultures of First Nations peoples and acknowledge that sovereignty was never ceded.
As a talent practice shaping workplaces across Australia, we have a responsibility to foster fairness, representation and genuine inclusion. We commit to listening, learning and supporting workplaces where First Nations peoples have opportunity, voice and leadership.
May we walk gently, act with integrity and help the tide of equity continue to rise.
