Graduate Program null

BAE Systems Australia develops the latest technologies, capabilities and infrastructure to protect the people of the Australian Defence Force. As a Graduate, you’ll play a role in helping us to deliver this, supporting multi-billion dollar programs across every Australian Defence domain – air, land, sea and space. 

Our Graduate program follows a 2+1 structure. 

This provides two years of structured development followed by a tailored (to you) third year which focusses on leadership, innovation and/or focussed development activities that Graduates can select to build their own careers in speciality areas.

Our Graduates enjoy tailored career plans, extensive training and development opportunities, mentoring and competitive salaries.  Our passion for inclusion, respect and supporting you will ensure your career has the best start possible. 

Throughout our 2+1 Program, you will enjoy structured development, annual salary reviews and the mentoring of a Graduate Program Support Manager.  Your career will be off to a great start, as our program provides Graduates with meaningful, challenging work, and will provide you with an enriched development experience.

We provide more choice and opportunity for career success and we couldn’t be more excited!
