Whatever you choose, from catering to hospitality, supply chain to HR, or even a leadership role as a Logistics Officer, you’ll be relied upon by your crewmates. Relied upon to help them do their jobs, and relied upon when they want to feel at home. It’s a level of responsibility you won’t find in many jobs, with rewards that are just as hard to come by. You’ll travel the world as an essential part of our nation’s maritime presence, providing what we need to get the job done, from meals to missiles, and everything in between. It might sound like an enormous task. It is. But you’ll receive the constant training you need, so you’re always progressing, ready for your next operation.
I wanted variety from my job and the Royal Navy’s got that by the bucketload. I’m learning new skills and meeting new friends with the added bonus of knowing I’m part of a huge global effort.
Depending on what shift I’m working, the day starts with me either preparing or eating a hearty breakfast. Every meal time affects the morale of the ship's company - I feel I'm a vital part in providing it.
Everyone on board has their part to play, so I’m trained as a vital team member in damage-control. There are regular fire drills to keep us on our toes.
I’m also trained as a Level 2 first aider, so when I’m part of a Duty Watch in port I’m the person who deals with any casualties.
When we have VIPs on board we can really show off and produce world class dishes. We're fully trained in ‘front of house’ duties so sometimes get the chance to meet royalty!
When we're at sea, we play sports on the upperdeck, sun bathe with a book or whale-watch. On my last deployment I visited the pyramids, went on safari in Kenya, and watched camel racing in Dubai.
After dinner we relax down the mess deck, holding X-Box competitions, watching TV or chilling on laptops. If we’re alongside we’re usually go out exploring what each country has to offer.
Aircraft carriers, assault ships, destroyers or frigates: this is our backbone. It gives us our global impact, from combat missions to humanitarian aid.
The world-renowned silent service, protecting us from beneath the waves. It’s responsible for highly classified, stealth operations – and Trident.
From fuel to food: what we need, when we need it, wherever we are. This fleet of civilian ships provides global support to the whole Naval Service.
