Job Description
DO YOU WANT TO OPERATE MILITARY TRANSPORT VEHICLES but have zero experience?
We’ll train you!
Think you have what it takes?
41 Service Battalion is hiring specially trained soldiers that support offensive and defensive military operations.
There are no other jobs like this one.
Why are you waiting? Challenge yourself!
Join 41 Service Battalion! Our soldiers work part-time within their community. You may also volunteer for deployment on a military mission within or outside Canada.
This is a part-time job with dental and education benefits, a retirement pension and an incredible experience. Earn while you learn! Combat Service Support Trades provide transferable training and experience toward your civilian career.
There is no career more challenging or rewarding than serving. You will receive world-class training, develop leadership skills and make great friends along the way. There really is no other career quite like it.
As a Reservist, you are paid a half day and a full day rate.
Uniforms and military gear are provided at no cost.
Meals and accommodations are provided during weekend field training, summer training, deployment training and deployment + extra pay.
Travel assistance may be available.
There are education reimbursements available through the Canadian Armed Forces. The Royal Canadian Logistics Service, the Royal Canadian Legion, and other groups have scholarships and bursaries that may be applicable toward your post-secondary education.
Dental coverage (for most items) is 90%, Health Care Premiums are reimbursed, and you will contribute toward a Pension which provides financial and health benefits when you retire.
Are you still reading? Great! There’s more.
A successful candidate must:
• be a Canadian Citizen or Permanent Resident
• have completed at least Grade 10 or Secondaire IV (in Quebec)
• have parental consent if under age 18
• meet Canadian Armed Forces medical standards
• successfully complete selection process, interview and examinations
• pass physical fitness tests
The Canadian Armed Forces values strength of character and team contributions. This means that regardless of your gender, religion or ethnicity, the Canadian Armed Forces invites you to be a part of its team and to explore the opportunities it has to offer.
The Canadian Armed Forces has a “no exclusion policy,” and has become one of the only militaries in the world to remove all barriers to full and equal service for all its members with the opportunity to work any Trade in the Canadian Armed Forces.
41 Service Battalion is in search of Drivers (Mobile Support Equipment Operators or MSE Ops) to move supplies such as food, ammunition, fuel, engineering assets, and soldiers. You will train as a part-time soldier and learn how to operate various trucks and types of equipment, how to dispatch, coordinate logistics prime movers, and conduct fleet management. Reserve MSE Ops are trained on several vehicles including counter-balance lift trucks, and Light, Medium and Heavy Transport Vehicles including Busses, Tractor-Trailers & Refuelers. Additional courses include Ammunition & Explosives Transportation, Driver Instructor, Driver Examiner, Air Brake Instructor, Collision Investigator, and many more. The MSE Op Trade is one of the most diverse Trades in the Reserve and in high demand. There are always opportunities for “extra” employment working with the Infantry, Artillery & Armoured Regiments.
We are conducting an information session on Wed the 20th of May at 7:30 p.m. at the Debney Armoury (parking in the east and west lots) at 8403 Roper Road NW, Edmonton, AB. We will present to you with what 41 Service Battalion and the Army Reserve has to offer.
