Canberra, ACT, Australia Australian Defence Force Full time

Are you a recent Year 12 graduate (or about to be) who wants to develop your skills before pursuing study, or take the time to think about your career direction? Or have you been thinking about a job in the Air Force but aren't sure it's right for you? Maybe you just want a break from your current job to travel and challenge yourself?

The Air Force Gap Year program provides young Australians who meet general entry requirements an opportunity to broaden their life experience with only a year commitment. The program offers a 'try before you buy' experience of Air Force training and lifestyle for young men and women, without any obligation to serve beyond the program period.

As an Air Force Aviation Support Technician, you will contribute to the Permanent Air Force aircraft related technical trades. You will have an opportunity to experience one of the following technical roles:

Aircraft Fabricator Aircraft Armament Technician Aircraft Technician Avionics Technician Survival Equipment Technician (Aircraft Safety Equipment Maintainer)

You will undertake a range of tasks, including but not limited to, aircraft ground handling, operating ground support equipment, replenishments, towing, marshalling, washing, launching aircraft and fly away kit maintenance.

You will be supported throughout your training by professional and enthusiastic Air Force personnel who will provide the guidance necessary for you to achieve your goals. This will begin at the No.1 Recruit Training Unit at RAAF Base Wagga, where you'll be enlisted in the Aviation Support Technician mustering as a trainee. Upon successful completion of recruit training, you will be regraded to Aircraftman/Aircraftwoman and will undertake aircraft type specific training at the RAAF School of Technical Training, also at RAAF Base Wagga. This will then be followed by aircraft maintenance duties for approximately seven months at one of the major air bases.
