Sydney's administrative services sector shows funding activity spanning from mid-2020 through late 2024, with a notably dense cluster in early 2022. Employment Hero's $130M Series F in February 2022 is the largest round in this set, followed closely by Shippit's $46M Series B in May 2022 and Enboarder's $32M Series B that same quarter. Five rounds closed within the first five months of 2022 alone, pointing to a period of concentrated investor interest in Sydney-based workforce and operations tooling.
Post-2022 activity is sparser. Three rounds appear in 2023 — The Martec, Servicely, and myInterview — and Sitemate's $18M Series A in December 2024 is the most recent close across the 14 rows shown. Deal sizes range from $2M at the low end (Servicely, Anchor Security, Pyn) to $130M at the high end, with several rounds carrying no disclosed stage label, including Deputy's $37M raise in March 2024 and Sendle's $35M in June 2021.

Seven of the 14 rounds closed in calendar year 2022, with five of those occurring between January and May. Checkbox, Employment Hero, Enboarder, Zoomo, and Curious Thing AI all raised within that five-month window, suggesting a pronounced activity spike before the broader market slowdown.

How many rounds in this set have an undisclosed or unknown round type?
Five rounds lack a standard stage label. Deputy ($37M, March 2024), Sendle ($35M, June 2021), and Pyn ($2M, July 2020) show no round type, while The Martec ($8M, October 2023) and Anchor Security ($2M, November 2022) are listed as Series Unknown.

Seed rounds in this set closed at $5M each (Curious Thing AI and Checkbox). Series A rounds show wider variance, from $2M (Servicely) to $18M (Sitemate). The single Series F — Employment Hero at $130M — is roughly three times the size of the next largest round, illustrating the steep scaling typical at that stage.
