Description:
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:
A Gap Year in the Air Force 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 Air Force training, and enjoy memorable experiences – unlike anything you’d encounter in most gap year jobs.

You’ll undertake a range of tasks, including but not limited to, aircraft ground handling, operating ground support equipment, replenishments, towing, marshalling, washing, launching aircraft and fly away kit maintenance.
If you’re someone that’s looking for a one-of-a-kind experience and is curious to see what life is like across different aspects of the Air Force—then this is an opportunity you wouldn’t want to miss.

- No commitment beyond 12 months
- Gain workplace experience and exposure
- Receive Air Force training
- Good work/life balance
- Travel opportunities
- Competitive salary package
- 16.4% superannuation
