This is part of a year-long ‘Love for Local’ series called NB365: portraits of New Brunswick entrepreneurs, businesses, and organizations. Huddle is a media partner with Love for Local. Today we feature Jordan O’Brien from Porter O’Brien, in Fredericton.

WHEN TIM PORTER AND I STARTED OUR COMPANY, WE HAD A DESIRE TO HELP OTHERS SUCCEED.

We had developed a specific set of knowledge and skills, having worked with each other over the previous decade. We could see the gaps in the consulting landscape and we decided we would be an ideal team to strike out and fill them.

Now, our days are filled with helping clients, extending to public relations, government relations, and structural management. We are proud to have grown our partnership to include a team of passionate people with complementary skills.

We live and breathe the culture we enjoy in New Brunswick. We are centred in Fredericton’s historic downtown but our employees live in every part of New Brunswick, from the western river valley to the southeast.

Our clients are throughout the province and we offer a specialized suite of services for French and Indigenous clients. We are also active in both French-based and English-based business organizations throughout the province.

We have all chosen to live in New Brunswick because we love the quality of life here. That all goes away if we don’t have a vibrant economy and that’s why we have to stick together and support each other’s businesses.
