Settling-in support & mentorship — across Australia
Move forward,
Move forward,
not just move in.
Arriving is never one task. It's a hundred small ones, most of them unfamiliar. Fore Consultancy handles the practical side of getting set up in Australia, then keeps working with you on the harder part: building a career, leading a team, and making a life here.
One consultant, from the first email to the last session.
Perth-based, Australia-wideOn the ground across Western Australia, and working remotely with clients nationwide.
One named point of contactThe same consultant from your first call through to your last session. No call centre, no handovers.
Priced before we startHourly in 15-minute increments, or fixed-price mentorship packages. Written estimate before any larger piece of work.
What we do
Two pillars: get set up, then get ahead.
Most clients find us for the practical help: the bank appointment, the rental application, the address they don't have yet. Many stay for the second pillar, which is where the larger change happens.
Pillar one — practical
Settling-in support
The unfamiliar administration of arriving somewhere new, handled alongside you rather than explained at you. Task-based, billed hourly, closed out when it's done.
- Arrival orientation & consultation
- Rental search & application support
- Administrative & appointment coordination
- Banking, utilities, mobile & internet connection
- Driver's licence transfer & application
- Mail forwarding & parcel management
Pillar two — developmental
Mentorship
Structured, ongoing guidance on what no form covers: how Australian workplaces actually operate, how to lead within them, and how to hold your footing while you do.
- Professional & career mentoring
- Management & leadership development
- Communication & workplace culture
- Networking & professional relationships
- Wellbeing, boundaries & sustainable workload
- Financial literacy & personal administration
Why Fore
Clear scope. Clear pricing. Clear referrals.
Most people arriving here don't need a law firm or a migration agency for every question. They need someone who answers the phone, knows how the process actually runs, and says plainly when a question belongs to a licensed professional.
One point of contact
One consultancy coordinating both the practical setup and the longer-term development, instead of ten separate providers.
Local knowledge
Guidance grounded in how the process actually runs in Western Australia, drawn from direct experience rather than a generic checklist.
Clear billing
Mentorship runs as fixed-price packages agreed upfront. Practical support is billed hourly in 15-minute increments, with a written estimate before larger work.
Clear boundaries
We state plainly when a matter requires a migration agent, lawyer, licensed adviser or clinical professional, and refer you on.
Who we work with
Most of our clients come to us during or just after a move to Australia — that's the situation we know best and the reason the practical and developmental sides sit together. But mentorship isn't limited to newcomers. If you're already established here and want structured guidance on your work, your team or your leadership, you're welcome to get in touch.

Workplace culture
Reading the room: Australian workplace norms that aren't written down

Scope of engagement
Scope & Referrals
We define this clearly because getting it right matters as much as the support we provide. Fore Consultancy is not a Registered Migration Agent, lawyer, tax agent, licensed financial adviser, licensed real estate agent, recruiter, counsellor or psychologist, and does not provide advice reserved to those professions. Where your question belongs to one of them, we say so and refer you on.

Our commitments
What every client gets, from the first call
We're a newer consultancy, so we'd rather show you what we hold ourselves to than fill this page with quotes. Client feedback goes up as engagements finish.
A reply within one business day
You'll hear back from a person, not a ticketing system. If we can't help, we'll tell you that quickly too.
Response commitment
A written estimate before a bill
We scope the work first. Larger pieces get a written estimate before anything starts, so the cost is never a surprise.
Pricing commitment
The same consultant throughout
One point of contact from your first call to your last session. You're never re-explaining your situation to someone new.
Continuity commitment
Not sure where you'd start?
Book a short call and we'll map out what support looks like for your situation, and what it would cost, before you commit to anything.
