Are you a veteran? We want to hear from you!

The program, which has been described as ‘ground breaking’, was established in 2016. It works to ensure the extensive training and experience of our contemporary veterans is utilised for the benefit of NSW. The initiative is now being picked up by other states, the Commonwealth and private industry.If you are a military veteran, join the Veterans Employment Program Networking List to be kept up to date on initiatives and events.

The Veterans Employment Program assists former Australian Defence Force personnel translate their experience to find meaningful and sustainable work in NSW Government. The team, a veteran and a military spouse themselves, work collaboratively with hiring and human resource managers to ensure a broad understanding of the skills a veteran can bring to the workplace across the public sector and externally.
