IN BRIEF
We’re always on the lookout for people with ambition and potential, to take on leadership roles in fields ranging from aviation to engineering and healthcare to combat. As an Officer in the Navy, Army or Air Force, you’ll learn to think quickly, make decisions, and motivate and mentor those under your command.
Entry and education
You can join the ADF following completion of Year 12, either by going straight into Officer training, or by being paid to study for an appropriate degree at the Australian Defence Force Academy. If you are already at uni and considering a healthcare, engineering or business-related role, you can apply for Defence University Sponsorship, which pays a salary plus your remaining course fees. Alternatively, if you are fully degree-qualified you can apply your knowledge to a rewarding Officer career in the Navy, Army or Air Force and be trained further on the job.
Unrivalled benefits
The Australian Defence Force offers much more than just interesting and varied work. You'll also love our unique culture of teamwork, adventure and fitness.
You will be given the opportunity to see more of Australia and the world, have access to great sporting and social facilities, and make friends for life. Ours is a dynamic place to work and play, where you can reach your potential in many ways.
