ORIMA Research Innovate Reconciliation Action Plan
At ORIMA, we have always upheld the principles of inclusion and diversity as key ingredients to achieving excellence in our work. This has meant that our business focus has involved building positive and respectful working relationships with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples throughout Australia.
Our commitments to Australia’s first peoples are outlined in our 2023-25 Innovate Reconciliation Action Plan (RAP). Our new RAP sets out 13 practical actions that ORIMA will take to build strong relationships, create opportunities and build ongoing respect and trust between cultures.

ORIMA Indigenous Education Fund
Since 2013, ORIMA Research has support the education needs of First Nations students in rural and remote communities across Australia through our Indigenous Education Fund. We have proudly supported Our Lady of the Sacred Heart College in Alice Springs since 2013, helping the Indigenous students to successfully complete their Year 12 education by sponsoring a scholarship program. In 2025, we expanded the Fund to two more schools – Amata Anangu School in rural South Australia, supporting the distribution of new uniforms for students to wear on educational camps, and Yipirinya School in Alice Springs, sustaining their nutrition program, which provides students with a healthy breakfast before school.
ORIMA Cadetship and Graduate Program
ORIMA Research is committed to training and developing young Australians. We recognise that Australia’s future prosperity depends on professional services firms taking active steps to support the development of young professionals. Accordingly, we have established a formal cadetship and graduate program which provides high potential young people with a pathway to a rewarding career in research. Information on our current graduate vacancies is available here.
