Designed in Australia to be entrepreneurial and equitable

Welcome to The Centelon Group

Entrepreneurial Spirit
Empowering employees

Centelon began in Sydney, Australia, with a clear vision. We wanted to be a technology company that addressed two fundamental challenges observed in the business landscape – first, the tendency of companies to lose their entrepreneurial zeal as they grow, and the second, to change the disparity in incentives between those who started the company and its employees, over me. Centelon was established to resolve these challenges through a combination of structure, process, and culture.

We believe that the entrepreneurial spirit – which we defined from the beginning as eager, ambitious, and nimble – is the ideal state of being. We want to scale with this spirit, and that can only be possible by empowering the employees who are the founders of this company’s direction and growth, every day.  And we lastly, we are proudly Australian, and want to give back to the communities that surround us.

Our Goals

Since 2016, the Group has grown profitably, tended by careful, traditional values, and now includes three new businesses: Centelon Solutions, Centelon Products and Platforms, and Bizessence, with three more being incubated. Every vertical is headquartered in Australia, with a global presence, and the distinction of being profitable startups from Day 1.

Be genuinely entrepreneurial at scale in the technology space

For employees to perpetually feel, and act like founders

Celebrate our Australian origins through genuine societal impact

We aim to fulfil the tremendous opportunities in this era of disruption, in which technologies are shaping people, communities and organizations

To become a globally respected, diverse, and trusted partner, enabling organizations to innovate using the latest technologies.

DEI - Philosophy

As a young company, Centelon is committed to Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion. We respect that each person is different and has different experiences, be it gender, age, ethnicity, race, education, work experience, society, culture, and abilities. We believe that honouring these differences with respect and kindness, make us stronger as teams and as a group. As an equal opportunity employer, all our decisions are merit-based. Our codes of conduct prescribe respectful communication and a collaborative approach, and we welcome new perspectives.

CSR - Philosophy

For the Centelon Group, giving back to the communities we live in is as important as equity and ethical business policies. Our CSR activities focus on helping disadvantaged communities, the environment, and other initiatives implemented in collaboration with NGOs, governments, and other firms.
