McArthur in the Community
At McArthur, recruitment and HR consulting have always been about more than connecting people with opportunities. They are about building stronger, more inclusive communities across Australia. For more than 55 years, we have proudly contributed to initiatives, partnerships and programs that make a genuine difference.
Our Commitment to Supporting Communities
Community engagement is an important part of the McArthur story. Guided by our values, we are real, we care deeply, we connect, we are expert and we enjoy, we continue to support organisations, associations and causes that reflect the industries we work in and the communities we serve.
The John McArthur Foundation
Through the John McArthur Foundation, we provide financial and non-financial grants and support to a broad range of charities and not-for-profit organisations across Australia. The Foundation is funded directly by McArthur and therefore made possible by the outstanding work of our team across the country.
We maintain a portfolio of long-term annual contributions to vital charities such as The Starlight Foundation and Cabrini Hospital. McArthur team members are also encouraged to submit ideas and recommendations, ensuring that many of the Foundation’s contributions go to causes close to their hearts.
Volunteering and Employee Involvement
Our people are encouraged to get involved in community life whether through volunteering, mentoring, fundraising or sharing their professional expertise. By supporting our consultants and HR professionals to contribute in meaningful ways, we create a stronger culture within McArthur and extend our positive impact beyond recruitment.

National and Local Impact
With offices in Adelaide, Brisbane, Canberra, Melbourne, Perth and Sydney, McArthur is committed to supporting both national programs and local initiatives. Our Melbourne team also oversees Tasmanian community projects, while our Brisbane office manages community partnerships across the Northern Territory. This national approach ensures that metropolitan, regional and remote areas benefit from our involvement.
Partnering with Industry and Community Organisations
We are also committed to giving back and supporting the business sectors we partner with. This includes regular sponsorship of industry events and long-standing partnerships with peak bodies in Aged Care, Early Childhood Education, Human Services, Nursing and Government. These initiatives help us contribute to the growth, innovation and sustainability of the industries we work with every day.
Why Community Matters to Us
As one of Australia’s most respected recruitment and HR consulting specialists, McArthur has built its reputation on trust, relationships and genuine care. Giving back is not an add-on to our business, it is central to who we are. By supporting community initiatives, charities and industry partnerships across the country, we help create opportunities for people and organisations to thrive.
