About this role
We are seeking you who are responsible, enterprising, and unpretentious team players who want to help create a future-proof army. Within staff service and administration, you thrive as an employed soldier being the spider in the web and have the ability to systematically keep many balls in the air simultaneously.
One of the Army Staff's focus areas is building the new army. An army that focuses on its field capabilities and in doing so builds new as well as restructures existing units. In parallel, the Army Staff leads units both nationally and internationally. The Army Staff develops and production-manages war units and subordinate organizational units consisting of units and schools.
The above, combined with continuing to establish the Army Staff as a cohesive and unifying force, means that work tasks are highly varied, developing, and dynamic. We are all solution-oriented and approach our tasks and responsibilities with great commitment where EVERYTHING for the army is our driving force.
The Army - when and where it is decided!
