About Us
The Australian Defence Consulting team has been established to deliver internal consulting services for the Department of Defence. Our mission is to provide market-quality consulting services and strengthen the APS-ADF workforce by building enduring capability across business areas. We aim to enable Defence to achieve the transformational change required to deliver the agenda outlined in the National Defence Strategy.

We are not here to just displace private consulting support and do work which otherwise would have gone to the market. Instead, we focus on uplifting capability and reducing the use of, and reliance on, external consulting firms where it makes sense to do so. Much of this will be achieved not just by doing projects but by enabling areas of Defence to be self-sufficient by transferring leading consulting practices and knowledge to the APS and ADF workforce.

Why Join Us?
This is a unique opportunity to use your consulting skills for national outcomes free from the commercial goals of private consulting. You will have the opportunity to shape Defence's approach to internal consulting, pioneering new methods and providing thought leadership and innovative ideas and solutions. As a member of ADC, you will work to transfer skills and learning to the business areas in which you work, helping to uplift capability across Defence to meet future needs.

We offer a career path which combines the best opportunities consulting and Defence have to offer. If you are a driven individual motivated by delivering impact, we invite you to consider this exciting opportunity.
