A team driven by a shared purpose — to leave places better than we found them.

Era Advisory is a Tasmanian-based consultancy delivering outcomes that endure across approvals, policy, engagement, and strategy. With sharp thinking, legislative insight, and practical action, we navigate complexity with clarity.

Our cross-disciplinary team of planners, scientists, and communicators bridge strategic thinking and grounded experience to join the dots that others miss and guide projects from ideas to impact. We don't just work in Tasmania: we shape it, and it's a responsibility we carry with integrity and care. Because for us, progress isn’t enough. We believe in building futures that last. For people, for places, for generations to come.

Our story

Since establishing Era Advisory in 2012, we've grown to become one of Tasmania's leading planning, engagement and environmental approvals consultancies. While our business has evolved, our purpose has remained remarkably consistent.

Our mission is simple:

“To create a legacy of positive and lasting impact for the benefit of the community and environment, today and into the future.”

Throughout our growth, we've remained committed to values-led decision-making, trusted relationships and work that contributes to better outcomes. We believe good advice has the power to influence not only individual projects, but the future of communities, industries and places.

Today, we continue to be guided by the same principles that shaped Era from the beginning: integrity, responsibility and long-term thinking.

How we create impact

Much of our impact comes not from what we build, but from the decisions we help shape.

Every day we advise governments, organisations, businesses and communities on planning, environmental, engagement and strategic challenges. Through that advice, we help people navigate complexity, manage risk and make better-informed decisions.

Our approach is built around a simple idea:

Advice → Better Decisions → Better Places → Lasting Impact

Better advice supports better decisions. Better decisions create better places. Better places contribute to stronger communities, healthier environments and a more sustainable future.

Better businesses help create better places

At Era, we believe success should be measured by more than financial performance alone.

As planners, strategists and engagement specialists, we help shape decisions that influence communities, economies and the environment for decades to come. We believe that responsibility extends beyond the advice we provide. It also includes how we operate as a business.

We are committed to creating value for our clients, supporting our people to thrive, contributing positively to our communities and acting responsibly towards the environment. Simply put, we believe better businesses help create better places.

That belief led us to become a Certified B Corporation™.

For us, B Corp™ certification was never about obtaining a badge. It was about holding ourselves accountable to an internationally recognised framework and ensuring the way we operate reflects the same integrity, responsibility and long-term thinking we bring to our work every day. Certification independently assesses business performance across governance, workers, community, environment and customer impact, reinforcing our commitment to balancing purpose with commercial success.

Importantly, certification is not the destination. It is part of an ongoing commitment to continuous improvement, stronger accountability and creating positive impact through the work we do and the way we do it.
