Defence Connect is pleased to partner with Navy Health for the highly anticipated Defence & National Security Workforce Awards 2025.
The private health insurance company has joined this year’s Defence & National Security Workforce Awards as a supporting partner and brings a wealth of experience to the awards.
Navy Health is a not-for-profit health fund offering private health cover for currently serving or ex-serving ADF members, their families, and those working for companies that supply the nation’s Defence forces.
Through the partnership, Defence Connect and Navy Health will celebrate the best and brightest across the defence and national security workforce.
Speaking on the partnership, Ron Wilson, chief executive officer at Navy Health, said: “At Navy Health, we are proud to support the Defence & National Security Workforce Awards 2025 as a sponsor.
“These awards play a vital role in recognising the exceptional individuals and teams who serve and support Australia’s defence and national security sectors with dedication, integrity and professionalism.”
“As an organisation with deep roots in the defence community, we understand the unique challenges and sacrifices involved in this line of work,” he said.
“Through our tailored corporate health insurance offerings, we support defence and national security organisations by strengthening their employee value propositions, helping them attract, retain and care for a talented and healthy workforce.
“Our partnership with these awards reflects our broader commitment to the wellbeing of those who protect our nation – both in uniform and behind the scenes.
“We believe celebrating excellence not only honours individual achievement but also reinforces the resilience of Australia’s defence and national security workforce.”
The second annual Defence & National Security Workforce Awards provides a platform to recognise the achievements of young professionals and the impact of transformative initiatives across the defence and national security sector.
The awards acknowledge top-performing technical, operations and communications specialists under the age of 35 as well as the nation’s leading reserve support and training development programs.
The winners will be announced at the black-tie/military mess dress gala ceremony on Thursday, 15 May 2025 at Ilumina in Sydney. Click here to buy tickets.
