Be proud of yourself

Want to really achieve something? Make a difference?
Whatever your background or level of qualifications, today’s Army offers women more varied and exciting opportunities than ever before – with competitive salaries and regular promotions.

What you can do
Signaller, clerk, medic, driver, logistician, nurse… the list goes on.

The fact is that MOST jobs in the Army are open to women as well as men – either full-time, as a Regular soldier, or part-time with the Territorial Army (TA).

You could train to use sophisticated communication systems in the Royal Signals. You could gain a trade and useful qualifications in the Royal Engineers. You might prefer to further your skills in a medical or admin role. Or work with heavyweight equipment in an active role with the Royal Artillery.

Whatever you want to achieve, you’ll train in a supportive environment and become part of a great team based on trust and mutual respect.

What you’ll get
As well as an exciting lifestyle and qualifications to boost your CV, you’ll be fitter than ever, enjoy experiences you’ll never forget – and make friends for life. All this, plus good pay, a range of benefits and a pension to look forward to.

‘‘Army training is brilliant and took my IT skills to a very high level. Everyone works together as a team.’’
Signaller Natalie Jamieson, Royal Signals (Regular)

As a soldier in The Royal Signals, Natalie is part of a team that provides vital communications and IT networks on Army Operations and exercises. Quite simply, The Royal Corps of Signals is at the heart of all the Army’s deployments – using state-of-the-art technology, involving everything from encrypted voice networks to tactical broadband internet to deny the enemy the use of their own communications.

‘‘The training can be pretty tough but it’s enjoyable. The personal rewards are awesome – they outweigh anything you get on civvy street.’’
Lance Corporal Dulcie Speer, Adjutant General’s Corps (AGC) (Regular)

The Adjutant General’s Corps is responsible for the Army’s administration, education, policing and law.

To become an AGC soldier, Dulcie first had to achieve the same standard of physical training required by all British Army personnel. She now enjoys a lifestyle that’s filled with opportunities to travel the world on assignments, take part in adventurous training and to gain new qualifications. How does that sound?

The AGC has opportunities for women with energy, intelligence and organisational skills. You’ll be sensitive enough to work with soldiers on personal matters and enjoy the great team spirit the Army offers.
