Vacant job

One of the Army Staff's focus areas is building the new Army. An army that focuses on the Army's operational capability and, in doing so, builds new units as well as restructuring existing ones. Concurrently, the Army Staff leads units both nationally and internationally. The Army Staff develops and production-manages combat units within the Army, as well as subordinate organizational units consisting of units and schools.

Combined with the continued establishment of the Army Staff as a cohesive and unifying force, this results in work tasks that are highly varied, developmental, and dynamic.
