A new chapter for Six Degrees Executive

For more than two decades, Six Degrees Executive has built its reputation on strong relationships, specialist expertise and doing the right thing for the people and organisations we support.

As our business and the market have evolved, we saw an opportunity to better reflect that experience through our brand and digital presence.

While the way organisations hire continues to change, our philosophy remains the same: people before process, honest partnerships and expertise that delivers long-term impact. Our refreshed identity simply gives us a clearer way to express that promise.

The values 

that drive us

Our values guide everything we do, from how we work together to how we support our clients and candidates. They reflect who we are, what we stand for and our commitment to creating meaningful impact every day.

Six Degrees Executive values: people first, better together, do what's right, brave & curious, pursue best and make it happen.

Community Support

We have a structured workplace giving program which allows employees to regularly contribute to four charities of choice pre-tax

We have a structured workplace giving program which allows employees to regularly contribute to four charities of choice pre-tax: Beyond Blue, Foodbank Australia, The Smith Family and RSPCA Australia. 

These donations are matched on a regular basis by Six Degrees Executive as we aim to donate 1% of our profits per annum to charitable and community causes. We have chosen these charities as supporting mental health, disadvantaged people and communities and promoting equal opportunities is extremely important to our business and team members. 

In addition, all employees receive one volunteering day per year to either participate in a Six Degrees sponsored charity event, or volunteer in a capacity that is important to them. Over the past two years we have supported the following causes through donating our time and resources: Food Bank, Oz Harvest, St Kilda Mums, The Salvation Army, Re-Love, Big Group Hug and Very Special Kids.

Diversity and inclusion

At Six Degrees Executive, we know from experience that the secret to unearthing great talent lies in understanding individuality.

That’s why we strive to develop a culture and recruitment environment where all types of diversity are valued and celebrated – not just because it’s the right thing to do, but because diverse and inclusive cultures are good for business. 

Six Degrees Executive has a structured approach to Diversity, Inclusion and Belonging focusing on our own employees, our clients, our candidates and our communities. These initiatives focus on Reconciliation, Closing the Gender Gap, Inclusion (cultural/ LGBTQIA+) and Accessibility.
