A career in New Zealand's Army is more than a job - it's a lifestyle. Working in the Army is always varied so you’ll never feel the boredom that can go with the typical 9-5.  

The NZ Army is deployed across the globe, helping to rebuild communities and restore peace in war-torn areas. You’ll get an OE that goes beyond the beaten track, you’ll get to help make a difference and you’ll get paid all at the same time! A life in the Army is probably a lot different to what you may think...



It’s all about variety…
It’s not all soldiers and guns! The NZ Army has professional positions in a plethora of areas. You could be a field psychologist, an education officer or even a firefigther! Whatever your talent and passion, there is an opportunity to be trained into a specialist role of your choice. You could even have your University education paid for with an Army scholarship!

You can stay connected…
Just like with any day job, once you’ve finished for the day, the time is yours. When you’re off duty you are free to catch up with family, friends or your partner.
 

 

Get paid to keep fit…
Sporty girls will thrive in the Army lifestyle – you get paid to keep fit! You'll have access to free gyms and pools, and the Army are strong supporters of individuals who want to take their sport to the next level and play at representative level. Love thrills and spills? Adventure training includes a range of exciting activities – including abseiling, river rafting, high altitude survival training and mountaineering!

Girly things are allowed…
Don’t worry you won’t have to swap your foundation for camo paint! When you are off duty you can wear casual clothes and there are loads of social events for you to get glammed up for!
