Our Experience
Proximity has a multidisciplinary national security team with deep knowledge of the National Intelligence Community (NIC) and practical experience delivering the legislative, organisational and operational programs that have reshaped these agencies over the last decade.
Skills and expertise
Our expert team understands the needs and challenges of the NIC as a trusted arm of the Commonwealth – driving complex bodies of work with rigorous oversight mechanisms. We can strengthen your project by bringing and sharing a wealth of broader perspectives, drawn from national security careers in senior executive, whole-of-government, ministerial-level and international settings. We are a Defence Industry Security Program (DISP) member with over 75 security cleared staff, including at the TSPV and NV2 levels. Proximity has worked with our national security clients, including the Department of Home Affairs, the Department of Defence and other national security agencies, to implement security policy, regulation and governance reform, design organisational transformation strategies, and deliver project management and legal services, including legislative reform, legal advice and litigation. Proximity combines its unique capabilities with a ‘can do’ attitude and a genuine commitment to understanding you and your requirements.Commonwealth Panels and Marketplaces
