Entry options
There are several ways to join the Navy, Army or Air Force. Our Officers lead a capable team of Sailors, Soldiers and Aviators, who make up the majority of our workforce.
If joining full-time is too full-on, you can choose a part-time role with our Navy or Army Reserves. Alternatively, you could support our Defence Force in a civilian position.
To help you choose your path, we’ve broken down the entry methods below. The choice is yours.
