You don’t have to be a soldier to work at the Ministry of Defence.
You can work as a civilian or as a military personnel in one of the supporting units of the Ministry of Defence: the Defence Staff, the Materiel and ICT Command, or the Support Command. Here, you can work as a purchaser, IT specialist, technician, or in one of the many other civilian roles.
The Ministry of Defence protects what is dear to us. Its most important asset is its personnel. With around 65,000 employees, it is one of the largest employers in the country.
The civilian workforce, with over 22,000 employees, contributes to peace, freedom, and security around the world by providing support and managing materiel and IT systems.
Both military and civilian personnel are invaluable in fulfilling the mission of the Ministry of Defence, each bringing their own expertise.
Working at the Ministry of Defence comes with high expectations, but you get a lot in return: a good salary, opportunities for advancement, and attractive secondary benefits, such as provisions to help balance work and private life. The Ministry of Defence invests in you throughout your career, including your personal development. You will be in a work environment that is appealing to broad sections of society. Background, gender, sexual orientation, or skin color do not matter here. What matters is what you can do and how you do it.
