Job role
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.

Company background
Built on the proud history and traditions of the Australian Flying Corps and the Royal Australian Air Force, we will fight and win by generating integrated kinetic and non-kinetic air and space effects across the sea, land, air, space and cyber operating domains.
Air Force provides immediate and responsive military options across the spectrum of operations as part of a Whole of Government joint or coalition response, either from Australia or deployed overseas. We do this through the key air power roles - control of the air; precision strike; intelligence, surveillance and response; and air mobility - enabled by combat and operational support.
We exploit the air power characteristics of persistent and precision effect, flexibility, perspective, reach, penetration, versatility and responsiveness.
We are leaders in: command and control of air and space operations; intelligence, surveillance and response; and targeting.
Our trusted and respected leadership and professional mastery of air power is a product of attracting, training, educating and rewarding Australia's best people.
We are the leaders for strategic, operational, tactical, technical and logistic management of Australia's military aviation capability.
Through efficient management of Air Force operations and business, we will continue to provide responsive military options to the Government of Australia for the defence of Australia and her interests.
