MINE CLEARANCE DIVER – UK ROYAL ARMY
What you’ll do
From the moment you join, you’ll train to become a world-class diver, wherever you are in the world. Being a Royal Navy Mine Clearance Diver means you’re part bomb disposal master, part sub-aqua specialist.
Because there’s only a handful of divers on any ship, you’ll form close bonds with your team and be central to their – and your crewmates’ – safety. This is one of the most physically demanding roles in the Royal Navy. And it’s hugely rewarding too.
Your role
- Play a central role in maritime counter-terror operations, whether you’re shore-based or on board a ship.
- Work collaboratively and inspire team morale, from pairing up on dives, to helping prepare your mate’s equipment.
- Embrace constant challenges, develop your skills, and have the opportunity to progress quickly to a Command role.
- Learn how to deal with a range of ordnance, from state-of-the-art mines to World War Two devices
Pay and benefits
- A salary that rises to at least £20,000 after initial training
- Earn in excess of £51,000 as your career develops
- An excellent pension scheme
- Six weeks of paid holiday every year
- Free medical and dental care
- Additional diving pay of at least £4.62 per day when qualified

- You must be aged 18 to 37
