Information about the Swedish Armed Forces and the recruiting unit:

The Air Defense operates on the ground and is part of the army but often collaborates with the Air Force. The Air Defense monitors the airspace with mobile sensors (such as radar), detects threats, and protects important objects and operations against attacks from the air through combat with missiles. The two air defense battalions that are part of the operational defense are trained and kept on standby by the Air Defense Regiment.

Our employees participate in missions both at home and around the world.

In the Swedish 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 opportunities for internal career mobility, wellness, and a good balance between work and private life.

Employment with us means placement in a security class. Usually, Swedish citizenship is required. A security clearance with a background check will be conducted before employment according to Chapter 3 of the Security Protection Act. With employment comes an obligation to be placed in wartime. The nature of this varies depending on the type of position.

To the application 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.
