Australia’s acquisition of conventionally-armed, nuclear-powered submarines is historic and transformational. The Optimal Pathway announced on 14 March 2023, will deliver Australia a world-class capability that will see our nation become one of only seven countries that operate nuclear-powered submarines. This game changing capability will enhance Australia’s capacity to deter conflict and support security, peace and economic prosperity in the Indo-Pacific.

This significant undertaking presents an exciting opportunity for dedicated, committed and aspirational leaders to drive, develop and shape the Australian Nuclear Submarine Program.

Your Role

The Virginia Support Branch Head is an SES Band 1 position providing strategic leadership for the development, integration and delivery of Australia's sovereign Virginia-class Submarine (VCS) Support system. The role is accountable for ensuring that Australia’s future sovereign support system capability is underpinned by fit-for-purpose infrastructure, a skilled and ready workforce, and a mature maintenance system that supports the long-term operation of Nuclear-Powered Submarines.

Reporting to the Head Virginia Division (HVD), you will lead the design and implementation of Australia's sovereign VCS support system capability and provide enterprise leadership across sustainment, maintenance planning and execution, integrated logistics support, waterfront operations, industrial capability development and sustainment transition activities. The role will work closely with Defence, Navy, ASC, aligned defence industry, Australian Government agencies and AUKUS partners to ensure Australia develops an enduring and sovereign support system capability capable of ultimately transitioning to Australian-led sustainment operations.

As the senior support leader within Virginia Division, you will ensure the sustainment enterprise delivers against operational readiness requirements while supporting safe, secure and effective stewardship of Australia's nuclear-powered submarine capability.
