If you’ve been looking for a change of pace in your day-to-day, a career that’ll get you both job security and opportunities to carve out the future you want, then the Army could be just what you’re looking for.

Growth is everything when it comes to securing the future that you want, and a great factor when it comes to the Army is that upskilling is encouraged and facilitated. You can choose to pursue your growth and development through employee training programs on-the-job, or even get a university degree at the Australian Defence Force Academy alongside military training — HELP-debt free.

The Army’s investment in your progress doesn’t mean a slimmer paycheck either — they offer competitive salaries, accompanied by a substantial superannuation rate of 16.4%. So you can build up your skills to advance in your career while earning a full salary.

Another huge factor when it comes to considering your career options is work-life balance — and working in the Army doesn't mean sacrificing it. Your future with the Army can mean the opportunity for flexible work, depending on your field and job requirements. Beyond financial and professional wins, working in the Army means you also could have the chance to explore the world — experiencing different cultures and communities across the globe.

Remember those benefits from earlier? They include free medical and dental care from world-class professionals.

You’ll also receive housing subsidies, covering both housing and moving costs — and eligibility for a home loan through the Defence Home Ownership Assistance Scheme after four consecutive years, or eight years of Reserve service.

The scheme essentially helps members buy their own homes by paying a monthly subsidy on their home loan interest. Now, that definitely sweetens the deal — especially given today's challenging housing market.

If you're craving a career that blends excitement and development with a competitive salary and benefits, why wait? Start your application today and discover the extraordinary opportunities that await you in the Army.

For more information, head here and discover how you can redefine your work-life balance — the Army way.
