Melbourne, Victoria, Australia Australian Army Reserve Full time $216,000 per year

Your Role

As a Combat Engineer, you'll experience adventure and excitement outside the everyday. You'll train as a specialist in military field engineering and learn a variety of transferable trade and combat-related skills.

There is no lack of variety in this role. One day you could find yourself constructing temporary roads, bypasses or fords. Then the next, you could be the operating rafts and ferries. You will learn a range of skills, including how to operate a chainsaw, conduct demolition tasks and clear a minefield.

Combat Engineers also play an important role during high-risk weather seasons and can be deployed on domestic operations to assist local state authorities.

Why join the Army Reserve?

If you're looking for a new challenge, the Army Reserve could be for you. You'll enjoy the satisfaction of giving something back to Australia, while benefitting from:

  • Tax-free daily pay
  • Free healthcare and accommodation whist on exercise or deployment
  • A flexible time commitment, serving anywhere from days per year
  • Easy to fit into your lifestyle with the option to work close to home
  • Comprehensive training
  • Rewarding work that may be in complete contrast to your day job
  • A supportive team environment
  • May have the opportunity to deploy overseas (postings are voluntary)
  • Friendships that last a lifetime
  • No minimum period of service, allowing you to leave and come back to the Army Reserve whenever you like

Boost your Income

The pay you receive in the Army Reserve goes straight into your pocket with no deductions for tax, and it increases as you gain seniority and experience.

On completion of your initial military and employment training, you could earn at least $216/day tax-free.

Additional amounts are paid for time spent on exercises and deployments.
