Fuel Specialist

1 week ago


Canberra, ACT, Australia Australian Defence Force Full time

As a Fuel Specialist (also known as Operator Petroleum) you'll perform a wide range of technical fuel functions. Primarily you'll be dealing with the refueling of vehicles, aircraft and a range of fuel installations in the field. To keep the Army's top machines functioning, you will need to be a motivated self-starter who possesses initiative and clear thinking, and can remain cool under pressure. You may also be involved in operating petrol, oils and lubricants equipment; laboratory testing and analysis of these products; and the storage, packaging and disposal of Dangerous Goods - including hazardous materials, but excluding ammunition and explosives.

For the most part Fuel Specialists work in small groups. However depending on the situation they can be required to work alongside the Army's helicopter units for support. In these cases you'll be expected to be able to use your initiative and work in isolated environments. These smaller groups sometimes merge with the other small groups to provide support to mechanised units when a larger scale exercise is needed. The ability to work within a team is a necessity.

You'll be provided with plenty of travel opportunities both in Australia and overseas, as well as enjoying the job security of being a member of the Royal Australian Army Ordnance Corps.
