BGIS is proud to be recognised as a Veteran Employer of Choice by the Veteran Employment Program, an Australian Government Department of Veterans’ Affairs initiative. Joining the Veteran Employment Commitment acknowledges our pledge to employing Australian veterans and creating an environment where they can perform at their best. As a result of our many years of service to the Australian Defence Force, BGIS attracts veterans and spouses, and many civilians with family connections to the military.
