​​​​​​​Creek Migration is an Australian boutique business that prides itself on professional quality, ethical standards and a commitment to human rights, social justice and our global environment. We care about the world we live in. 

Creek Migration's connection to Australia is reflected in our location in the Northern Rivers Region of New South Wales, which has many beautiful mountain creeks and rivers. Creek Migration sees the value in having a diversity of people and skills in regional and remote areas to drive economies and support healthy, inclusive communities.

​Creek Migration values humans and invests in
creating a safe space for people from all
backgrounds, genders, nationalities,

We are like islands. 

Separate on the surface,

but connected in the deep.

We acknowledge Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples as the traditional owners of Australia. In particular we acknowledge the Jagera, Turrbal, Mununjali and Bundjalung communities in the areas where we work. We pay our respect to Elders past, present and future, and to the traditional custodians and cultures of this land. This includes a commitment to environmental sustainability in our day to day work practices, as we strive to tread lightly on this land where we live.
