Step into the fast-paced world of Cyber Security with the Kmart Group Graduate Program and help protect the systems that power millions of transactions every day. Our Cyber team’s mission? To secure the tech that keeps Kmart and Target running—from stores to supply chains—so we can keep delivering value, safely and confidently, to our customers.

What You’ll Experience

If you're into ethical hacking, digital forensics, threat hunting, or security strategy, this is your chance to dive into the action. You’ll be part of a dynamic, future-focused team working on real-world problems, not textbook simulations. Think security operations, incident response, penetration testing, and using the latest tools to stay ahead of cyber threats. You will be at the forefront of protecting and safeguarding Kmart group’s assets – both physical and virtual including intellectual property which builds consumer trust and boost revenue growth.

This program is all about growth - real experience, real impact, and real opportunities. With mentorship from industry pros and a learning journey tailored to you, you’ll explore different rotations in Cyber Security, find out what you’re interested in, and carve out a career path that actually excites you.

In the Cyber Technology stream, you will:

• Monitor, detect and respond to threats across a complex tech landscape
• Help shape policies, controls, and practices that keep us secure
• Learn from cyber pros across disciplines, from cloud security to risk & governance
• Use data and automation to protect our systems at scale

You’ll be backed by a tailored learning program, 1:1 mentorship, and industry exposure that will set you up for long-term success.

Your Rotations Might Include:

• Cyber Engineering
• Cyber Operations
• VAPT
• GRC
• DevSecOps & Cloud Security

About the Program

Starting in February 2026, our 2-year program includes 3-4 rotations within the Cyber Security function, with a permanent placement upon successful completion. During the program, you'll engage in practical and meaningful work that impacts our customers and allows you to grow your career through a personalised learning program. You'll be fully supported along this journey, working alongside and learning from industry experts.
