Wollongong, Australia Army Full time

"An entry requirement for employment with the Australian Defence Force (ADF) is that you must be an Australian citizen. If you do not meet the citizenship conditions for service in the ADF, we are unable to accept an application from you. You are welcome to apply once you have completed your citizenship journey."

Your Role 

From the workshop to the field, this exciting part-time role in the Army Reserve will help you step outside the everyday and experience new challenges and adventures. 

As a part time Vehicle Mechanic, you’ll be responsible for repairing and servicing a variety of high-tech military vehicles; including tanks and other armoured vehicles, trucks, 4WDs and motor bikes. 

You'll also receive comprehensive and ongoing training to master a huge variety of advanced machinery, and gain new skills and knowledge that you can take back to your civilian career.  

This is the perfect opportunity to step outside your comfort zone and hone your craft while working with likeminded people who become mates for life. It is also an opportunity to give back to the community and earn tax-free pay.  

Just give as little as one night a week, one weekend a month or a few weeks a year and you’ll get a world of new experiences back.   

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 $220/day tax-free.  

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

Life in the Army Reserve  

Thousands of men and women enjoy part-time roles with the Army Reserve operating alongside full-time Army personnel. The only difference is that your commitment is flexible.  

Initial training length will vary based on your chosen role, after which you will normally be expected to serve between 20 and 100 days per year. This could involve one night a week, one weekend a month or a few weeks a year.  

We do our best to make sure this fits in with your work and family commitments. Deployments are voluntary, so if you choose to stay local, there are plenty of ways to make a difference closer to home. There’s no minimum period of service, so you can leave the Army Reserve whenever you like. 

Apply Now  

For this role, you’ll need to hold a trade qualification/trade certificate aligned to a Certificate III in an Automotive Technology Trade (or equivalent), as issued by a state training authority. You’ll also need to have completed an Australian Year 10 education (or equivalent) with passes in English and Mathematics. You must be an Australian Citizen. 

Click the APPLY button if you’re excited by this opportunity, and we’ll contact with you shortly.
