Lou38 Posted March 11, 2018 Posted March 11, 2018 We are considering a move to Australia with my husband applying for th RAN through the lateral transfer process. I just wanted to find out more about the likelihood of relocations in Australia every 2-4 years and the length of deployments. Would appreciate any information anyone has on this.
Marisawright Posted March 11, 2018 Posted March 11, 2018 I've known two women with husbands in the navy. They lived in Sydney all the time I knew them (15 years or so). The only other fleet base is Perth, I think - all the other bases are training facilities. I dated a navy guy and he was based in Nowra but that was the navy air base (he was a helicopter mechanic).
VERYSTORMY Posted March 12, 2018 Posted March 12, 2018 From experience on the forum only, it is generally only submariners that they are looking for.
Lou38 Posted March 12, 2018 Author Posted March 12, 2018 Thank you for your replies. According to the defence website, there are a number of areas that they are looking to recruit to. I know from looking at other forums that the process is quite lengthy, about 2 years. It would be good to hear from others that have made the move over recently. Again, if anyone knows of any other forums I can find any further information, then please let me know.
