Australian Army
Posted 4 days ago
Your role:
A Gap Year in the Army gives you an exciting taste of life in the ADF with just one year’s commitment. You’ll get paid for meaningful work, receive full Army training, and enjoy memorable experiences – unlike anything you’d encounter in a regular gap year.
As a Movements Coordinator, you’ll play a critical role in providing direct support to ADF operations and exercises. You’ll help manage complex operations, from coordinating the movement of small specialist groups of personnel, to large scale and complex deployments of entire ADF units on international operations and exercises, by land, air and sea assets.
Your 12-month experience is divided into stages. First, you’ll get paid to learn the military and job-specific skills you need for your role. Then you’ll post to a unit to apply your newly learned skills and may have opportunities to travel around Australia to take part in domestic exercises and operations. Plus, you'll be supported by professional and enthusiastic Army personnel throughout your experience.
After finishing your Gap Year program, you can choose to continue a career in the Army or you can use your new skills and experiences in future careers outside the ADF.
Your duties may include:
Movement planning, control and reporting
Arranging movement of vehicles and equipment by road, rail, sea and air (military and contracted assets)
Performing movement control functions at staging areas, airfields, ports and terminals
Arranging individual and group travel for personnel during operations and exercises
Working alongside Air Force, Navy, government and non-government agencies and foreign military logistics personnel.
