Job description
Become an expert in leadership.
From port operations to bomb disposals, the work our Royal Logistics Corp Officers do is integral to every operation. Commanding a team of up to 80 soldiers, you'll become an expert in leadership and management, and gain valuable qualifications along the way, such as a Post Graduate Certificate in Conflict and Leadership studies or a BSc (Hons) in Logistics Management. You’ll be prepared for everything, from tactical and strategic operations to humanitarian relief operations and military deployments.
Start the adventure of a lifetime.
During your training at Sandhurst, you’ll be an Officer Cadet, earning £34,676 a year. As you progress through our ranks, this will rise to £52,815 for a Captain, and £66,240 when you become a Major.
You’ll also receive 30 days’ annual leave every year (plus bank holidays and extra leave after operations), free medical and dental care, cheaper living costs, and free gym and sports facilities. And unless you're away on operations or training exercises, you'll normally work 8.30am to 5pm, Monday to Friday.
As an entry-level Officer, you’ll start your career in a position of management, commanding responsibility for your team of soldiers. You don’t need any experience to apply – through world-class training at the Royal Military Academy in Sandhurst, you’ll develop the transferrable leadership skills and qualifications you need to motivate and support your team.
Outside the Royal Military Academy, you’ll continue to learn and grow through adventurous training and international travel. Being an Officer is a global adventure, whether you’re leading expeditions, running operations abroad, or delivering humanitarian aid to communities in need.
