Career Development

On the move. There are no limits to how far we can go together

We’re unique in Australia. Much more than an IT company, or complex systems integrator, our ambition and growing reputation attracts seriously smart people and fascinating projects. We’re forward thinkers, looking for the opportunity to do more and explore better ways of doing things. We prove ourselves with every project delivered – as a business, as teams and as individuals. Our people embrace challenge and change as ways to improve and innovate.

We’re an agile Australian organisation with unexpected depth. We’re well organised, locally focused and globally backed. While we have access to leading-edge tech and expertise from the US, almost all our solutions, from concept to delivery, are proudly developed right here in Australia.

When you grow, we grow

We’re on the move and so is your career. Whether your goal is to hone a skill and become a serious subject matter expert, to become that great leader others talk about, to challenge yourself with new technologies, or just to have a really complex problem to solve - it’s all available to you here. No matter what role you’re in, or what you choose to do, your People Leader will be there to guide, mentor and support you; to uncover opportunities, to navigate your Leidos career and realise your potential. That’s what enables all of us to deliver work that really matters.

Every day is an opportunity to learn

Whether it’s technical training, project management certifications, leadership development or professional skills development, we’ve got it covered. With over 120,000 professional and technical skills courses available on-demand, you can take your learning as far and wide as your curiosity stretches. This comes with face-to-face or virtual opportunities and generous education assistance support, including meeting all the costs for a range of core certifications. It’s learning, your way.

Everyone deserves a great People Leader

We invest in our People Leaders because we know that a great People Leader means a great team. That’s why we built the People Leader Code and our Emerging Leaders program.

The People Leader Code is a nine-month bespoke program that gives all our People Leaders the skills, knowledge, tools and confidence they need to better support, engage and develop their teams.

Our Emerging Leaders program is designed to provide a foundation for future People Leaders. It’s a three-month program designed to prepare future leaders for take-off and beyond. 

This means your leadership experience at Leidos will truly be in great hands.

The People Leader Code was a terrific way to connect with others, learn from them, see different approaches and build my own confidence.
