While contracts with Defence usually provide SMEs with more consistent contracts and therefore growth opportunities, it’s important to also spread services outside of Defence to ensure longevity in the field.

On this episode of Defence Connect Podcast, host Phil Tarrant is joined by Warren Levin, Sydney City Marine's director of commercial and defence, to delve into his role at the vessel maintenance and repair business, the complete range of services provided by the SME, and how he identifies and pursues new contracting opportunities.

Warren also shares the proportion of Defence-orientated work within the company, why he's so passionate about working with Defence, and his history in the Navy as a clearance diver.
