With twice as many people to look after as Australia’s largest company, keeping the Army operational requires an army of people in itself. Soldiers,
officers and support staff need to be housed, fed, resupplied and relocated, sometimes under very challenging conditions and always to schedule. It takes
a particular commitment and dedication to keep an organisation this large this well oiled. But then that’s what makes the Army
so special.
From bases in Australia to combat and humanitarian missions overseas, wherever the Army goes so do logistics and support personnel. No one day in the Army is the same and a career built around keeping the Army supplied and organised can be hugely rewarding. Where else can you be part of something so big and get to experience so many once in a life time opportunities?
