You might know that our Mission is to solve our customers' most challenging problems across Aeronautics, Mission Critical Systems, Space and Guided Weapons to help safeguard Australia's future.

So, there are plenty of opportunities to start a career in a friendly, supportive and values-led environment. Here, everyone contributes, and everyone matters.

Defining Possible is our mantra and we are committed to making sure that works for our people's careers too. What's Your Possible?

Everyone Matters:

Doing the right thing and sharing success are two values underpinning how we behave at Northrop Grumman. Here, everyone matters including candidates from diverse backgrounds.

We are particularly proud of our commitment to reconciliation with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people as demonstrated through our our Second Innovate RAP (2024-2026), and our support for Veteran employment, and welcome Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people and Veterans to apply to join our team.

Our recruitment process can be lengthy for successful applicants, as we need strong security checks to let candidates close to our secure technology. Therefore, any candidates MUST have an Australian Citizenship to apply. We are excited to hear from you soon!
