Northrop Grumman UK is working with WYWM to assess for potential in untapped talent pools, providing people from diverse backgrounds – who may be new to a career in tech but have a natural ability to learn it quickly – with the chance to join their ranks.

A ‘squad’ of ten has been deployed to NGUK’s biggest business unit – the cyber and intelligence business. Roles include business analysts, as well as software and Java developers, based in both London and Manchester. The squad’s backgrounds are broad and varied, from a former police officer with a disability to a neurodivergent military veteran.

Increasing connectivity in the Pacific region is a force for significant social and economic development and inclusion – however it also has the potential to expose the region to increased threats from malicious cyber actors. Papua New Guinea’s National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC) is an initiative that acknowledges the benefits of Australia and PNG working together to foster a strong and resilient cyber security environment.

The program, delivered by the Australian Government’s Department of Foreign Affairs & Trade and WithYouWithMe, is supporting PNG’s development of local digital skills, which ensures they have the expertise required to detect and address evolving cyber threats and respond to cyber incidents.

WithYouWithMe has been solving a broad range of tech and workforce challenges across the Canadian Armed Forces for more than two years.

Of particular note is CAF’s Software Factory – a key digital transformation project which has seen WYWM deliver teams of diverse talent to build technology solutions using the Microsoft product suite. This model is agile and grows over time to ensure CAF can meet the evolving needs of its operation with in-house talent.

Ernst and Young (EY) partnered with WithYouWithMe to address the Canadian Government’s cybersecurity talent shortage, by providing free digital skills training to Canadian Armed Forces
Veterans.

Veteran candidates for the Cyber Workforce Enablement Program (CWEP) undergo WYWM’s aptitude, psychometric, cultural fit, and learning style assessments to be matched to entry-level tech roles in government to build up Canada's cyber workforce.

In keeping with their ongoing commitments to hiring more digitally skilled veterans and members of the military community (spouses and families), BAE Systems partnered with WithYouWithMe to source security cleared talent.

WYWM’s aptitude and psychometric testing enabled BAE Systems to discover veterans with the best skills and knowledge for their open technical roles.

The organisation onboarded 10 people and trained them for information and technology roles across the business, including in cybersecurity, systems and data administration, network engineering, and application specialists roles.
