Security Officers

A broader professional security career.

DefenceXpress is being designed around Security Officers — with clearer opportunities, specialist pathways, professional progression, visible readiness and support before, during and after assignments.

What can Security Officers do in DefenceXpress?

Build a professional career around capability — not just availability.

The Officer journey is intended to bring assignments, readiness, professional records, training, support and progression together instead of forcing Officers to manage them across disconnected systems.
