Seftons Advisory provides advice and guidance to business, to help inform the strategic planning and effective delivery of their messaging, products, services and policies.
This strategic counsel is based on Seftons’ deep understanding of what is shaping and influencing agribusiness and rural and regional communities.
Our access to current and relevant insights – including our very own Seftons Regional Index – means we have our finger on the pulse when it comes to what is driving the conversation. And it is this knowledge that helps us work with clients to navigate their business through change and volatility.
With more than 30 years in the game, we have the ear of government agencies, industry and business leaders, farmers, and media. This sees us highly sought after to provide counsel to some of Australia’s most influential and successful organisations.
Our specialisation in agriculture and what is driving its economies also sees us work on some of the biggest issues shaping the future of rural and regional Australia, including the Murray-Darling Basin Socio Economic Assessment, the Blueprint for Australian Agriculture, Water for the Future, Carbon Farming Futures, and Inland Rail.
Our founder, Robbie Sefton AM is one of the country’s most influential voices, reflected in her wide range of board and advisory group appointments including mental health, water, agriculture, environment, telecommunications, and tourism.
