11/9/22 – U.S. Secretary of Labor Martin J. Walsh recognized Jovian Concepts as one of the 835 recipients of the 2022 HIRE Vets Medallion Award during a virtual award ceremony presented by U.S. Department of Labor.

“Jovian Concepts continues to prioritize hiring our veterans as our way of demonstrating the respect and appreciation we have for those who have served our country,” says Heather Johnson, PMP, Senior Vice President of Jovian Concepts. “The knowledge and skills they've acquired in the military are applied throughout our organization on every level. Jovian Concepts provides mentorship and guidance for newly separated service members in an effort to ease their transition. We are proud to include the recruiting, hiring, and supporting the professional development of veterans in our core business rhythms at Jovian Concepts.”


Jovian Concepts joins 834 other companies from 49 states, plus the District of Columbia, who have shown a commitment to hiring veterans, but also ensuring that they have a long-term career and growth plan that uses the diverse skills they acquired through their military service. Recipients of the 2022 HIRE Vets Medallion Award meet rigorous employment and veteran integration assistance criteria, including veteran hiring and retention percentages; availability of veteran-specific resources; leadership programming for veterans; dedicated human resource efforts; pay compensation and tuition assistance programs for veterans. More than 1,400 employers have earned a HIRE Vets Medallion Award since 2018.
