Commtract is Australia & New Zealand’s first marketplace and community for communications professionals.
Founded back in 2016 by Pete McConnell, former Head of Public Affairs for Woolworths and Luke Achterstraat, former Advisor to the HON. Andrew Robb AO MP, who saw the opportunity for a marketplace allowing companies to engage the services of high quality communications experts for ad hoc projects on demand. In conjunction with Anna Whitlam (of Anna Whitlam People), Ross Thornton and Rebecca Tabakoff (from Temple Executive Search), three of the corporate affairs industries’ most well regarded executive search names, they launched Commtract.
We’re different to other marketplaces in the way that our experts are fully vetted and interviewed by our talent team. Every expert on the platform needs to be approved based on their proven skills and experiences, so we ensure that as a client, you receive only the highest quality.
Since launch, Commtract has evolved with our clients and experts. We’ve grown from the initial short-term ad hoc projects to now placing communications professionals in 3, 6, or 12 month contracts of all specialities. As we like to say, we have experts to suit your needs from one day, to one year, and beyond!
Commtract is now part of ‘The Shingle Group’, a group of sector focused, vetted marketplaces, focused on connecting organisations with the world’s best talent. The Shingle Group is led by Haim Jacobowitz, former Expedia Asia-Pacific CFO.
