PARTNERSHIP

2021 – present

Client

BellchambersBarrett is a mid-tier professional services firm in Canberra. It was founded to combine technical excellence with a genuine people-first culture. Since 2014, it has become one of the fastest-growing accounting and advisory firms in Australia.

We’ve been BellchambersBarrett’s content marketing partner since 2021, helping the firm reposition its reputation as a long-term employer of choice.

Challenge

When we first met the BellchambersBarrett team, it was facing a significant test: attracting top talent in a competitive professional services market. At the time, most graduates and early-to-mid career professionals were choosing the Big Four firms over smaller, independent ones, making recruitment and growth difficult.

BellchambersBarrett needed a strategy to showcase its workplace strengths – particularly its supportive culture, enticing career pathways and deep community involvement.

Solution

Our content marketing program for BellchambersBarrett has evolved and grown with the firm. It includes:

  • Content strategy: We created a tailored content strategy to position BellchambersBarrett as an employer of choice, focusing on culture, opportunity and community.
  • Website refresh: We continually refine the firm’s website messaging and structure to better reflect its strengths and evolving employee value proposition.
  • Ongoing content creation: From articles and career stories to community event pieces, we continually help BellchambersBarrett share authentic stories that showcase its culture.
  • Social media marketing: We support the team with regular LinkedIn content (writing, design and publishing) to boost visibility and engagement.
  • Recruitment materials: We write and design eGuides, graduate program brochures and other collateral to strengthen seasonal recruitment campaigns.

Results

Our ongoing partnership has helped transform BellchambersBarrett’s brand presence and recruitment outcomes:

  • The firm has more than doubled its team size since 2021.
  • BellchambersBarrett is now highly regarded among graduates and professionals in Canberra.
  • The firm successfully attracts senior partners from Big Four firms.
  • The BellchambersBarrett brand is recognised for its professional excellence, but more importantly, for its supportive, people-first culture.
