Wipfli teams up with Defense Department to support military spouses

Wipfli is excited to now be a part of the Defense Department’s Spouse Education and Career Opportunities (SECO) program, specifically the Military Spouse Employment Partnership (MSEP).

By joining MSEP, Wipfli is now one of over 200 organizations this year, expanding the network to more than 850 employers dedicated to recruiting, hiring, promoting and retaining military spouses in meaningful careers.

“At Wipfli, we’re committed to supporting military spouses and recognizing the unique challenges they face,” said Maureen Pistone, Wipfli chief human resources officer. “We know that military spouses bring incredible skills and fresh perspectives to the table, and we’re excited to for this partnership. It’s a win-win, helping military families thrive while also enriching our workforce. We’re thrilled to be part of this initiative and can’t wait to see the opportunities it brings.”

Through the MSEP initiative, military spouses gain access to a vast network of supportive employers committed to their professional growth and success. Since its inception in 2011, MSEP employers have hired over 340,000 military spouses, helping them build stable and fulfilling careers.

Wipfli is all in when it comes to supporting military spouses and service members and is grateful for their service and sacrifice. Providing career opportunities to military spouses not only enhances the financial stability of military families but also contributes to force retention and military readiness — key components of national security.

Wipfli recognizes that providing meaningful career opportunities for military spouses is not just the right thing to do — it’s good business. Military spouses are skilled, diverse problem-solvers who bring valuable perspectives to our workforce. By joining the MSEP, we aim to provide lasting, fulfilling career opportunities that strengthen both military families and our company.

Wipfli is proud to be part of this vital initiative and looks forward to empowering and supporting military spouses across the nation. Together, we can make a significant impact on the lives of those who support our service members.
