Embark on a unique 12-month Gap Year experience with the Australian Army Aviation Corps (AAAvn) as an Aviation Groundcrew member. This role plays a critical part in providing mobility and dedicated aerial reconnaissance to the Army.
You will learn to support and provide mobility for soldiers and equipment in the battle zone, as well as conducting specialist armed reconnaissance, firepower support, surveillance, in a combined, joint or interagency environment. Average salary: $65,000 - $85,000 per annum, depending on location and level of experience.
Throughout your Gap Year program, you will be supported by professional and dedicated Army personnel who will provide guidance necessary for you to get the most out of this experience.
Your training will begin at Kapooka in NSW, where you'll complete approximately 9 weeks of recruit training. Training will involve physical training, weapon handling and shooting, first aid as well as drill and field craft.

You'll then be posted to a unit across Australia, where you'll join an experienced team and have opportunities to put your new skills to the test.
All while making friends and gaining experience that will last you a lifetime. While your surroundings may change, your job role remains consistent and is essential to the effective operation of the Army.
After finishing your Gap Year program, you can choose to continue your career in the Army, or use the skills and experiences to gain an edge in future careers. There's no obligation to serve beyond the one-year program period.
