Veterans
Over 30% of our Downer Professional Services team are veterans, and they take great pride in their continued enablement of Defence capability through complex program and project delivery across the sea, air, land, space and cyber domains.
As a workplace that respects, values and nurtures veterans, Downer Defence are privileged to tell the stories of some of our people, and how they have found meaning in their careers out of uniform. Find out more.
Proudly supporting the families of those who served
Downer recognises the dedication of Australian veterans and the impact their service can have on their families. We are proud to support them by helping to ease the financial burden of tertiary education, creating new opportunities for their family.
