An Australian Indigenous and Veteran owned and operated workforce solutions provider, proudly based on Kaurna Country in Adelaide, South Australia.
From recruitment specialists to a workforce partner
Warrung began as a specialist recruitment company with a simple conviction: the people best placed to connect employers with Indigenous and veteran talent are people who belong to those communities themselves.
Founded by individuals with deep roots in both the Indigenous and Australian veteran communities, we specialise in complex and high-risk industries — defence, mining, oil and gas, and all levels of government. Our consultants have supported acquisition and sustainment projects across Army, Navy and Air Force, and we bring that operational discipline to every engagement.
Today Warrung is a comprehensive workforce solutions provider — a genuine one-stop shop for workforce needs. Recruitment remains our core, and our clients now engage us for workforce consulting, Indigenous workforce strategy, contracting and veteran transition support.
Our mission is unchanged: to create meaningful connections between employers and talent from all backgrounds by honouring integrity, diversity, community and Country.
A veteran of the Australian Defence Force with deep connections across the Indigenous business community, Luke leads Warrung's client partnerships and its mission of Indigenous and veteran employment.
Warrung — to change, to transform, to alter
Warrung is a Ngarrindjeri word meaning to change, to transform or to alter — a name that reflects what we set out to do for every person and organisation we work with.
Our logo features the Wuldi — the Ngarrindjeri word for the Wedge-Tailed Eagle — a powerful symbol native to the Riverland region of South Australia, land of the Ngarrindjeri People.
Luke is a proud Ngarrindjeri man, born and raised on Kaurna Country, with family connections to the Ngarrindjeri People in Kingston SE. He draws deep inspiration from his late grandmother, Ruby Hammond, a dedicated advocate for the rights of Indigenous Australians. Her remarkable life and legacy are honoured in the book Flight of an Eagle: The Dreaming of Ruby Hammond.
To be the trusted workforce partner for government and industry across high-risk, complex and specialised sectors.
