Maximise Your TSPV Clearance

TSPV-cleared professionals form one of the most trusted communities in Australia; their reliability is needed across a wide range of government and industry roles where they influence national policy, manage sensitive budgets, support classified programmes, and help shape the strategic direction of Australia’s most secure institutions.

Government departments and national security agencies are increasingly seeking individuals who not only have the relevant security clearance, but also analytical thinking, operational expertise, and policy insight to high-stakes environments.

These roles are critical to national missions and demand the same integrity, discretion, and professionalism that your clearance represents.
