Royal Australian Air Force - Motor Mechanic

Opportunity

As an Air Force Motor Mechanic help maintain a variety of vehicles and airfield support equipment, while enjoying:

• a good salary plus generous superannuation
• ongoing investment in your personal and career development
• free medical and dental
• job security and a good work/life balance
• world-class training
• subsidised accommodation
• a supportive team environment
• travel and leave entitlements
• free access to sports and fitness facilities
• friendships that last a lifetime

All that plus meaningful experiences such as joining peacekeeping missions and supporting communities in need.

Your role

Many mechanics spend their working days maintaining motor vehicles, electrical equipment and hydraulic systems. But imagine how much more interesting it would be doing the same job but with:

• Air Force vehicles
• aircraft arrestor systems
• aircraft refuelling equipment
• aviation components
• forklifts and aircraft loading systems
• ground support equipment, and
• workshop plant.

The techniques are similar but in the Air Force the work is likely to be far more varied and the team spirit is like no other. In the role of Motor Mechanic, no two days will be the same and your 'workshop' could be in one of many locations across Australia, and even overseas.

You could be about to leave school, or maybe you already have trade qualifications and a job. Either way, as long as you love mechanics and fixing things this is your chance to embark on a really worthwhile and rewarding career.

Better still, you'll be working for a dynamic organisation that offers a great lifestyle plus opportunities you simply won't find anywhere else.
