An Australian foreign service diplomat by training, Dennis Richardson also served in the departments of Immigration and Prime Minister and Cabinet. He was chief-of-staff to prime minister Bob Hawke (1990-91), director-general of the Australian Security Intelligence Organisation (1996-2005), Washington ambassador (2005-2010), head of the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade (2010-2012) and head of the Defence Department (2012-2017)
