Wilson Security is one of Australia’s leading security providers, employing over 7,000 personnel across every state and territory. They deliver protective services to critical infrastructure, government departments, defence establishments, healthcare facilities, major events and the private sector.

As a proud supporter of Australia’s veteran community, Wilson Security are committed to creating meaningful career pathways for current and former serving members of the Australian Defence Force and their families. They are recognised as a Veteran Employer of Choice via the Veteran Employment Commitment.

Since launching their Veteran Employment Program in 2022, they have welcomed over 115 veterans into their workforce and embedded targeted support structures that ease the transition to civilian employment.

The program includes structured onboarding, career mentoring by veteran leaders, dedicated development pathways, and partnerships with key ex-service organisations including Bravery Trust and Salute for Service. These partnerships ensure the program is both authentic and impactful.

With a leadership team that includes veterans at every level – from frontline supervisors to senior executives – they remain deeply connected to the veteran experience and committed to making a lasting difference in the lives of those who have served.

Wilson Security’s goal is clear: to be the employer of choice for veterans in the Australian security industry.
