Navy Maritime Warfare Officer Submariner (ADF Gap Year)

Your Role:  

A Gap Year in the Navy 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 Navy training, and enjoy memorable experiences – unlike anything you’d encounter in most Gap Year jobs.  

The position of Maritime Warfare Officer Submariner is highly respected and in your 12 month experience you will learn from the best. You will observe Maritime Warfare Officer Submariners leading their tight knit teams to achieve a variety of missions both in Australia and overseas.

When else will you ever get the opportunity to work onboard a Collins Class submarine? With its stealth technology, whisper-quiet propulsion, and powerful sensors, it’s one of Australia's key strategic assets—and it’s yours to experience as part of the ADF Gap Year program. 

Coupled with the highest standard of leadership training, the skills you across this role are transferable to other management and leadership positions and will provide you a unique edge.
