Is the RAF for me?

If you take a look at the huge range of jobs we offer, you’ll see there’s a lot more to the RAF than flying jets.

Our jobs vary as much as people do. For some, you need no qualifications at all; for others, you need anything from GCSEs to a degree. If you’re about to go into the Sixth form or off to university, we may be able to sponsor your studies. Or, once you join, we can help you get anything from an NVQ to a high-level professional qualification.

Whatever your background and interests, if you’re young, motivated and adventurous, there’ll almost certainly be an RAF job to suit you. All RAF roles are open to women, with the sole exceptions of RAF Regiment Officer and RAF Regiment Gunner – jobs that can involve fighting the enemy face-to-face.
