In helping you to fulfill your career aspirations, we offer dual career opportunities for our technical staff, where you can choose to develop your skills and capabilities along either a technical specialist or management path.

Staff across DSO can also choose to grow their knowledge in areas outside of their expertise and elect to experience other technical or corporate positions, depending on availability and suitability.

We embrace a culture of continuous learning and development, and are committed to helping you grow and enjoy what you do.

With our Performance Appraisal and Career DEvelopment System (PACES), you'll gain a better understanding of yourself and your development opportunities, so that you can take charge of your career.

We also have in place, a learning and growth framework, designed to prepare you for the exciting challenges ahead.

You can enjoy a comprehensive suite of the following professional and personal development options:

• Training courses
• Further studies
• Overseas attachments
• Job rotations within DSO and the Defence Technology Community
• Adjunct appointments

Defence science and technology is constantly evolving. Staying ahead of the game requires you to keep your knowledge and skills sharp.

The DSO in-service scholarship and sponsorship programmes allows you to combine your aspirations for higher learning with the challenges of DSO's mission.
