🚨 Why great impact talent is often missed

Great candidates can’t apply for roles they never see.

Yet many hiring processes still rely on one or two places to advertise.

Post the role in one or two places, wait for applications, and hope the right person appears.
‍
At the same time, some of the strongest people in the impact world are building zig-zag careers across sectors, projects and communities.
Experienced.
Mission-driven.
Highly capable.
But often hard to find. Ripple exists to change that.

🌱 Bigger than your next job

Imagine if more great people worked on the world’s biggest problems.

Across the world, millions of talented people want their work to contribute to something meaningful.

But too often they feel stuck - unsure where to start or how to move their careers toward impact.

Ripple exists to change that.

Because when more capable people apply their skills to climate, education, health, communities and social change — everything moves faster.

Careers shape the future. Where yours leads matters.

From small actions to systems change; we believe people are key to creating a ripple that echoes into the future

Ripple Opportunities was founded by Skye and Tim; two of Australia’s leading young community builders who met when they started chatting outside a Sumo Salad after being named inaugural Obama Foundation Leaders for the Asia Pacific.

Ripple was born out of the realisation that a new approach to supporting the future of work and our communities was needed. Five years, thousands of members, 300+ Civic Leaders, and countless programs and partnerships later; the Ripple team remains focussed on democratising access for the next generation of impact creators to shape a better future.
