If you thought the Air Force was just for pilots, you're about to discover a range of careers you never even knew existed. The Air Force is an incredibly diverse organisation that requires a huge number of skilled personnel including engineers and maintenance staff, health professionals, communications specialists, logistics and administrative staff, and a range of tradespeople. Everyone who joins the Air Force has one thing in common, they like a challenge and the teamwork that goes with it.

Be a part of defending our nation and participating in world events that will change your life, as much as the lives of the people you are helping. Earn world-class qualifications and make great friends along the way. There really is no other career quite like it.

Days of difference

The great thing about the Air Force is that your work environment is constantly changing. On base you may enjoy a fairly structured day and early finishing time that lets you catch up with family and friends, or make use of all the amazing sporting and recreational facilities. Off base your days may be a whirlwind of adrenaline and excitement. Learn more

See Australia and the world

The Air Force can provide you with travel opportunities above and beyond most other industries. When you talk to anyone from the Air Force, one of the first things you'll hear about is all the places they've visited. Whether it's travelling around Australia or overseas, some people who have only been in the Air Force for a year or two, can reel off a list off more destinations than most people will see in a lifetime.
