All organisations need human resource staff and the RAF does too. The only difference is a HR career in the RAF doesn’t just mean working in one office 24/7. You could be based within an RAF base, flying operations or at a military location in the UK or abroad where you’ll be preparing staff deployments, recruiting and administering.

RAF Regiment Gunner - RAF Regiments work together, fight together and make unbreakable bonds together, you’ll be responsible for combat tactics, weapons, field craft, and the protection of the force.

Supply, Storage and Distribution - You’ll be accountable for the receipt, handling, storing, distribution and disposal of assets and equipment within the RAF.

Catering, Hospitality and Chefs - This could see you working in cabin crew, dining rooms and hotels overseas on operations. This doesn’t always mean you’ll be taking care for the RAF personnel, it could be their families, politicians or even the Royal Family!

Aerospace Systems Operator - You’ll be at the front line of defending the UK and the forces abroad. This means you’ll need to have your eyes and ears wide open whilst working with some of the most advanced and experienced sensors, communications and information systems to keep lookout for any potential

Driver - You could be driving cars, cranes, minibuses or specialist vehicles to ensure personnels arrive safe and on time.

Mover - Movers keep things moving, from unloading and loading transport aircraft and cargo by air, rail and road.

Photographer - Are you the type of person that doesn’t miss a thing? Good because a photographer in the RAF need to capture shots of a wide range of occasions.
