Defence Materiel Organisation

From fighter aircraft and satellites to tents and rations, the Defence Materiel Organisation (DMO) is Australia’s largest project management and professional engineering organisation. DMO is a civilian group in the Department of Defence and has around 7,000 people in more than 50 locations throughout Australia and overseas. We are responsible for acquiring and sustaining the equipment used by the Australian Defence Force (ADF).

Big Projects

DMO is involved in many of the largest, most demanding and leading edge projects in Australia. The ADF relies on DMO to provide its equipment on time, on budget and to the required levels of quality and safety.

Big Budgets

If the DMO were a private company it would be one of the largest on the Australian Stock Exchange. The DMO has an annual budget of over $9.6 billion to acquire and sustain military equipment and services. In addition, DMO manages in excess of $60 billion worth of capital equipment projects and systems such as the ANZAC Class ships.

Big Opportunities

With over 200 major and 200 minor projects there is a huge variety of fascinating work. The DMO graduate and undergraduate programs provide you with the opportunity to use the skills you have acquired at university, while building on your experiences to support you to become a highly regarded professional. DMO is committed to the professional development of its people and all relevant development is centrally funded including assistance to achieve industry based professional recognition. The DMO Institute, a virtual corporate university, offers learning and development from practitioner through to postgraduate level in all key DMO disciplines.

Seeking...

DMO is an exciting and challenging place to work offering outstanding and diverse career opportunities for dedicated professionals. We are looking for graduates and undergraduates to join our graduate and cadetship (undergraduate) schemes, who are interested in developing DMO while building their career.
