Canberra, ACT, Australia Australian Defence Force Full time

Are you passionate about architecture and mathematics? Do you want to work on a variety of projects, from designing military structures to supporting humanitarian assistance operations?

This role as a Draughtsperson with the Australian Defence Force is perfect for you. As a highly trained structural designer, you will be responsible for creating detailed designs and construction plans for various projects.

You will combine your mathematical skills and passion for architecture to bring complex construction challenges to life. Your time will be spent visiting sites to understand the bespoke design requirements for each project, then using 3D technologies to bring them to life.

In this role, you will learn to:

  • Conduct client briefings and meetings to determine design philosophy and functional requirements
  • Conduct site investigations, surveys and analysis, and prepare sketches to develop concept design
  • Create 3D CAD model flythroughs
  • Apply building codes and regulatory requirements to develop design and documentation

As a Draughtsperson, you will have the opportunity to travel regularly to field sites and work in tactical field environments. You will also have opportunities to get close to the action, working with Combat, Engineering, Infantry and Cavalry units.

Don't worry if you don't have prior experience. You will receive all the training you need through your Initial Employment Training (IET). Upon completion, your first posting will likely be to Sydney, Brisbane or Ipswich.

Throughout your career, you will have opportunities to gain your Civil Construction Induction Card (White Card) as well as further training in Building and Construction management.

This role is known as Drafting Technician within the Army. The estimated salary for this role is $80,000 - $120,000 per annum, depending on location and level of experience.
