Welcome tothe Advocacy Edge.
When you’re in a scrap, you need a battle-hardened team behind you.
We’ve been in the arena - as senior decision makers, problem solvers, campaigners and advocates.
While lots of firms open doors. Very few can also fix a mess when things go belly up.
From political intelligence, government relations, approvals and crisis management, reputation protection and repair, message mastery, brand enhancement and events - we help you shape the conversations you can’t afford to get wrong.
Our battle-hardened team has many decades of hard-earned experience – knowledge you can put to work.
What We Do
Advocacy provides everything you need for enterprise-wide public affairs and communications advice, strategy and executive, including:
High-level, bipartisan government relations at federal, state and major Council level - to access the decision-makers, create policy, secure approval and change the narrative.
Market entry and acclimatisation for international firms navigating Australia's regulatory, FIRB and political environment.
Issue management and stakeholder strategy - we see around corners so you don't get blindsided.
Reputation protection and brand repair when it matters most. We've been through the fire — and can get you out.
Strategic media management and crisis communications - controlling the narrative before it controls you.
Property and major development advocacy - Australia's only specialist team for complex assessments and approvals - we also manage your Social Performance including community, stakeholder and shareholder activism to deliver win-win results.
Introducing equity, debt funding and channels to market for major projects - and identifying investment opportunities for public private partnerships - to help you pitch and execute your strategy.
Litigation support and dispute resolution - experienced litigators guide you through what you need to sort out a legal fight.
Board and Executive Governance health checks - we stress-test your systems before the real pressure hits.
Mining and development applications - we navigate regulatory and environmental challenges for state and federal governments, government agencies, councils, native land councils (RAPs), stakeholders and community - including assessment and approval strategies.
Executive recruitment to rebuild and strengthen your team - we resource permanent and short-term placements when extra help is needed - through our partner Horton International.
Curated concierge services - we engage the best professional team to support you through every need from Royal Commissions to Senate Inquiries - don't go there without our help.
Create strategic, bespoke events focused on branding and commercial execution, not just a good time (which is still the point) - via our partners at Events Emporium.
Who We Are
We’ve founded Advocacy because our largest companies and investors deserve better than amateur guesswork when dealing with government, regulators, media and the market.
We’ve been through the crucible. That’s why you can trust Advocacy with what matters most – backing you in when the going gets tough.
