We also pay our respects to the Gadigal people of the Eora Nation as the custodians of the lands on which our offices are located.

CIRCA is looking to grow its network of Research Consultants. We are recruiting people with disabilities, CALD community members with a variety of language skills, and Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples across Australia, in urban, regional, and remote settings, interested in joining our network and working with us as community-based research consultants.

A key to the exceptional capacity that CIRCA brings … is the ability to establish and maintain trusting relationships with the communities in which they conduct their activities.

What was really good: flexibility, timelines, clear communication, understanding our needs, the high standard of reporting and presentation, the budget and the professionalism showed by the CIRCA Team.

For us, the most important thing was timing and transparency. CIRCA fulfilled this in a fantastic way. The clarity of communication and transparency shown helped us a lot in communicating with our stakeholders. The report and presentation that followed met the requirements of the brief and provided valuable insights.

We were pleased with the turn-around time on this project, given the timeline was very compressed. CIRCA’s ability to quote and complete the project under these circumstances (limited time, urgent work) made a material difference to the outcome for both Ipsos and our end client. The participants you interviewed met the specifications for audiences we were looking for, which is clearly driven by your extensive networks and connections.

CIRCA met two very important objectives for us: delivery on time and with great quality. We are very happy with the work you have done and that is why we are working with you again.

We were very satisfied with the whole process. We found the communication with CIRCA very good because we were trying to navigate what the process looks like in an evaluation. Lena was very helpful in stepping us through it; she gave us different options within our budget. That was great.

It was a great decision to bring CIRCA's expertise and engagement with Aboriginal communities and organisations to the project. CIRCA provided guidance and sound insights about the Aboriginal communities on the ground. I was also pleased with CIRCA’s flexibility, responsiveness, communication and rigour as a partner on the evaluation.
