About Us

The Concierge Collective started in 2006 when Adele was looking for a new job opportunity.  Having been an EA and Administration Manager for almost 20 years in Canberra, London, Sydney and . Nothing seemed to inspire her until she read an article about a Concierge company and *bingo* , that was it.

Adele was able to use her talent for organising (anyone and anything) and do it her way.  Having seen the time pressures experienced by her boss’ during her career,  she knew that this service was desperately needed and could add valuable time to their lives.

Since then the company has grown to support clients across Australia and around the globe.  The key to our service is our passion for creating #timetolive for our clients.  It’s our mantra!

The Concierge Collective simplifies the lives of clients so they can get more out of it.  We use our enormous list of connections to fulfil each Request in a fraction of the time it might take a client to do themselves – among their already frantic schedule!

Not only do we take care of our clients lists, we take care of their lifestyle,  it’s that simple. We do the jobs they don’t want to do or have the time to do, so they enjoy more #timetolive.

Organising is what Adele thrives on, from organising a party on a private island in the south pacific to organising a pantry, Adele can make it happen. Even as a little girl, Adele’s idea of a play date with a friend was to rearrange her bedroom! Her lifelong passion for planning, problem solving and being the go-to-girl was the inspiration for Blair Lifestyle Management which opened in August 2006.

People ask me, “Why do you do what you do”?  Honestly, this is what I’m good at.  I do the jobs people don’t want to do and it makes them happy.  I maximize your time so you can achieve more, have better relationships and discover who you are, it’s the ultimate win/win and is so rewarding.

Through her experience working in the corporate world, coupled with her parents’ business experience, Adele developed the business acumen which led her to become a Finalist in the Telstra Business Women Awards, Business Owner category in 2011. Adele is a Certified Concierge Specialist (CCS) an Accredited Expert Professional Organiser and an Accredited Member of the National Concierge Association of the USA.

In May 2011, Adele co-founded the Institute of Concierge and Lifestyle Managers (iCALM). This organisation was created to support the growing needs of the industry in Australia and New Zealand.
