The Department of National Defence (DND) plays a vital role in defending Canada’s interests at home and abroad. Working alongside the Canadian Armed Forces, DND supports national security, contributes to international peace and stability, and helps Canadians in times of need. As one of the largest federal employers, DND offers a wide range of civilian career opportunities—from human resources, procurement, and project management to cybersecurity, engineering, and communications—across Canada, including the National Capital Region and various bases and wings nationwide. DND is committed to fostering a diverse and inclusive workplace where employees can thrive and grow. Through initiatives like the Military Spouse Employment Initiative (MSEI) and programs that support Veterans’ transition to public service, DND proudly champions the defence community and those who serve it.
