Logistics is the backbone of the Royal Navy. It’s your job to work closely with your Logistics Officer to make sure your crewmates have what they need, when they need it – wherever you are in the world. But being a logistician in the Submarine Service is different; without you, the submarine wouldn’t – and couldn’t – be operational.
What You’ll Do
- Learn all the skills you need to ensure your submarine has everything it needs to be operationally effective, regardless of the rigours of the highly classified mission you’re deployed on.
- Learn about managing a complex global supply chain, and how to source the items you need, all over the world.
- Learn additional skills as an Incident Board operator, helping damage‑control teams fight fires and floods.
- Manage logistical considerations such as stealth and avoid giving away the submarine’s position.
- Coordinate surface trips for food supplies and crewmate morale while managing millions of pounds‑worth of equipment.
Training Outcome
You’ll start your naval career as an Able Rate. With experience and further training, you could be promoted to Leading Hand and beyond. If you show the right commitment, skills, and academic ability, you could become a Commissioned Officer. Members of the Royal Navy are promoted on merit; work hard and you can rise through the ranks.
