Parachute Systems Specialist
6 days ago
The Australian Defence Force's Parachute Systems Specialist plays a vital role in ensuring the safe and effective deployment of military personnel and equipment via parachute operations.
As a member of the Royal Australian Army Ordnance Corps (RAAOC), this specialist is responsible for providing logistical support to the Army, including the provision, management, warehousing, and issuance of all military equipment. This includes the demolition and disposal of explosives, salvage of battle-damaged equipment, re-packing of parachutes, and other support services.
With expertise in technical functions related to parachutes and Aerial Delivery Equipment, the Parachute Systems Specialist performs inspections, repacks, repairs, modifies, analyzes malfunctions, sentences equipment, procures new gear, and manages fleets. These professionals must be military static line operators and, upon achieving the rank of Corporal, become free-fall operators. In many cases, they also serve as Parachute Jump Instructors for static line, free-fall, and high-altitude parachute operations.
This specialist is critical to all Army parachute operations, affecting the safety of others directly in the personnel packing role or indirectly in the cargo packing role. Their motto, 'Be Sure Always,' represents their commitment to responsibility.
In a small group environment, often working closely with the Army's Special Forces (Special Air Service and Commando), the Parachute Systems Specialist enjoys travel opportunities both within Australia and overseas.
Primary Duties/Employment in First Three YearsThe following duties are expected to be performed during the first three years of service before promotion to Corporal:
- Prepare Aerial Delivery Equipment for maintenance
- Pack parachutes
- Repair parachutes
- Maintain mechanical devices
