Veterans Onboard aims to help potential employers understand the Defence culture and core skills veterans possess, as well as dispel some of the myths and misconceptions about ex-Defence personnel. Securing civilian employment after service is one of the biggest challenges facing the 5,500 people leaving the Australian Defence Force (ADF) each year. RSL Queensland’s ‘Veterans Onboard’ program helps employers understand veteran talent and tap into this large talent pool. RSL Queensland President Tony Ferris said: “Our research shows that 10

finding employment – and particularly meaningful employment – is a high priority for transitioning Defence personnel. When they leave Defence, their household income can drop substantially, and they can struggle to translate their skills for the civilian world. Employment is a key factor in their mental health and quality of life. Veterans Onboard aims to help potential employers understand the Defence culture and core skills veterans possess, as well as dispel some of the myths and misconceptions about ex-Defence personnel”.

Mr Ferris said the ADF spent a lot of time, energy and resources training its people, which offered numerous benefits to employers. “Veterans are hard-working, loyal, organised and effective. They are good at communication, leadership, time management, problem solving and working under pressure. Their expertise can range from senior executive leadership and operational management, to technical and supervisory skills.”

compliance is not something that is easily transferable, but GMS saw my managerial experience and helped me transition.”

After 15 years with the Royal Australian Navy, former Petty Officer Boatswain Darren Williams searched for a year before he found work at Gateway Motorway Services (GMS) through RSL Queensland’s Veterans Onboard program. “I have a lot of experience, but it’s really hard to convey how that would be valuable to a certain workforce,” Mr Williams said. “Boarding vessels at sea and ensuring fishery

Gateway Motorway Services in Brisbane has employed six veterans over the past few months and general manager Simon Kirkpatrick said the Veterans Onboard program had been very successful. “I spent 27 years in the Air Force, so I understand the opportunities we have with exDefence people, their training and understanding of processes and procedures,” Mr Kirkpatrick said.

“They come with a level of enthusiasm, learn quickly and are very adaptable.” Businesses and organisations can complete RSL Queensland’s Veterans Onboard online training modules to learn more about Defence culture and veterans’ skill sets, and to gain access to RSL Queensland’s veteran talent pool. The Veterans Onboard training package is evidence based, having been developed in partnership with Gallipoli Medical Research Foundation as part of the Veteran Reintegration Study.
