About Us
Behind the Build
Grug Consulting is a proudly Aboriginal Australian-founded company with an expanding presence across diverse regions with strong presence in APJ & GCC markets. Rooted in rich Indigenous heritage, we fuse cultural intelligence with cutting-edge innovation to empower communities, champion diversity, and unlock untapped potential. In partnership with visionary organisations, we tackle complex challenges, create pathways for talent, and drive sustainable impact — forging a lasting legacy of strength, inclusivity, and progress.
Grug Consulting’s story is intertwined with the impactful work of the KENJARHY Foundation, a pioneering institution that has been empowering Indigenous communities for over 30 years. Established by a trailblazing Indigenous woman who dedicated her life to education and community upliftment, the foundation remains a beacon of hope and progress.
Under the leadership of Brad Draper, the founder’s son and current Managing Director, the KENJARHY Foundation has expanded its outreach, delivering impactful programs in education, employment, and community development. Brad also serves as the Honorary Director of Grug Consulting, ensuring our vision aligns with the values and mission of the foundation. Together, we are creating pathways for economic growth, cultural preservation, and long-term community empowerment.
