The Armed Forces Special Operations Command is a military strategic resource that increases the number of possible courses of action. An operation with the special forces is characterized by a high impact on the security political level. This may involve, for example, rescuing or saving Swedish citizens in international service or gathering intelligence. Within the special forces, we strive for simplicity in both planning and execution, unpredictability through unconventional methods, as well as determination, precision, and decisiveness. The readiness is high, and the personnel are specially selected, trained, and equipped to carry out their tasks.

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

The Armed Forces gives you the opportunity to develop as a person and grow in your professional role. We are a responsible employer and have an open organization where we support each other.

In the Armed Forces, there is a strong value base built on openness, results, and responsibility. Professional development and personal health are valued and encouraged. There are good conditions for internal career mobility, wellness, and a good balance between work and private life.

The Armed Forces takes advantage of the qualities that diversity and gender balance bring to the organization. We therefore welcome applicants with different backgrounds and experiences in our recruitments.

Employment with us means placement in a security class. Usually, Swedish citizenship is required. A security review with a background check will be conducted before employment according to Chapter 3 of the Security Protection Act. Employment also includes an obligation to be assigned to war. The implications of this vary depending on the type of position.

When applying for employment, a CV and cover letter must be attached. If you proceed in the employment process, certified copies of grades and certificates must always be presented.

Calls from external recruitment companies and salespeople are not welcome.
