Information about the Armed Forces and the Recruiting Unit:

The Stockholm Amphibious Regiment (Amf 1) operates where water meets land and serves as the link between naval and army combat forces. Fast-moving combat boats and hovercraft make the unit agile. Our weapon systems allow us to operate in four dimensions: on and below the water's surface, in the air, and on land. Thus, we can exert control over coastal areas.

The unit trains amphibious soldiers, coastal rangers, sailors, and officers in various main services. Amf 1 is responsible for the production of the war unit 2nd Amphibious Battalion and 2nd Marine Base Battalion. The unit is based in Haninge (Berga). Please read more at Armed Forces (https://www.forsvarsmakten.se/sv/organisation/stockholms-amfibieregemente-amf-1/).

Every day and every hour, our employees make contributions that affect other people's lives, both in large and small ways, both at home and around the world.

The Armed Forces has a strong value base built on openness, results, and responsibility. Professional development and personal health are valued and encouraged. There are good opportunities for internal career mobility, wellness programs, and a good balance between work and private life.

Employment with us means placement in a security classification. Usually, Swedish citizenship is required. Security checks with background checks will be conducted before employment according to Chapter 3 of the Security Protection Act. Employment also includes an obligation to be placed in wartime.
