Financials

TBB is fortunate to have generous funders all over the world. Our work is made possible by foundations, corporate partners, governments, United Nations (UN) agencies, and individuals who contribute to ensure we are able to work towards our vision of a world where displaced people can safely migrate for work, using their skills to rebuild their lives with dignity and purpose. In addition, our work is fueled and funded by employers who benefit from the skills and work ethic of the qualified refugees that they hire through TBB and our partners.

TBB Legal Entities

TBB is a global organization with a shared vision comprised of separate legal entities in Australia, Canada, the United Kingdom, and the United States, and a foreign operating branch in Jordan.

How We Invest in Our Impact

TBB’s 2024 consolidated financials are available in our 2024 Annual Report. In 2024, TBB spent USD $5.26m on programming, administration, and fundraising costs globally.

Our core programmes

In 2023, our expenditure was allocated to five core programmes (USD):

Global Programme

Supporting candidates to successfully compete for international jobs, advocating for systems change in the global migration system, developing and maintaining partnerships across the global refugee labour mobility ecosystem, maintaining technology (running and improving the Talent Catalog), as well as corporate functions (communications, finance, HR, and operations). These are funded under our Global Programme by our entities in Australia, Canada, the UK, and the US (see below).

Australia & New Zealand

TBB runs the Skilled Refugee Pilot in Australia, mobilizing employers and partners to help refugees relocate to Australia. We advocated for changes to immigration and recruitment systems in Australia and New Zealand to make them more accessible to displaced people.

Europe

In 2024, our programmes in the European Union and in the UK focused on implementing the Displaced Talent Mobility Pilot and the Healthcare Pilot in the UK, the Displaced Talent for Europe (DT4E) programme, the STEP: Skills, Talent and Empowerment through Pathways programme, and other initiatives expanding refugee labour pathways to countries across Europe.

Canada

TBB mobilizes employers and partners to help refugees relocate to Canada, as a trusted partner of the Economic Mobility Pathways Pilot (EMPP). TBB is also a leader in advocacy to develop and expand refugee labour mobility in Canada.

United States

TBB’s US programme supports refugees to access skilled visa pathways to the US, as well as advocating for changes to US immigration systems to make them more accessible to refugees.
