South Australia’s talent
The defence sector presents an array of exciting workforce opportunities that require a range of skills and qualifications including engineering, cybersecurity, electronic warfare, manufacturing and logistics. With advancements in technology, emerging geopolitical shifts, and defence initiatives, such as the AUKUS partnership, the demand for talented individuals is higher than ever before.
To seize this opportunity, we need to allocate significant resources and invest in local education and training initiatives in northern Adelaide. It is critical that we have a pool of skilled workers in northern Adelaide that can actively participate and support the growth of these industries. By prioritising industryspecific education and training and upskilling opportunities for local businesses, we can ensure they have the necessary defence-ready capabilities.
