As we begin 2026, Defence is certainly not slowing down with regards to their recruitment and are already planning for the year ahead. Defence requirements have increased substantially, and they have a continuing need for highly security cleared (TSPV) individuals to work across a variety of skills sets.
Working on top-secret projects and having access to cutting-edge technology are among the exciting prospects that TSPV contractors can look forward to. As is the security of long-term work in programs with a wide range of job opportunities for individuals with various skills and expertise.
These roles are primarily based in Canberra, but opportunities do arise out of Brisbane (QLD), Adelaide (SA), Melbourne (VIC) and Sydney (NSW) and require an Australian Government Top Secret Positive Vetting (TSPV) security clearance. These opportunities do not have the ability to obtain sponsorship for a security clearance.
I wanted to reach out to any TSPV Professionals who are looking for new contract or permanent opportunity for the new year. Even if you are looking to see what's out there and may be tentatively looking, please do apply
