The pace of bringing in new people must increase. That is why Defence has launched a new recruitment campaign today. The organization needs to count at least 100,000 men and women by 2030. In the years that follow, that number may possibly double. The need is high, and the urgency to recruit is also.

The world stage is restless. Security is no longer a given. Defence must strengthen itself. This means investing in equipment and in people. It is Time for Defence. That is also the name of the new campaign. This calls on people to take the step now to a place where they are challenged.

The new employees will have the opportunity to utilize their talents and make an impact. There is room for everyone who contributes to the armed forces. Working at Defence must be possible and attractive in every respect. The organization focuses on individual talents. This way, Defence finds an optimal connection between the capabilities of each person and the needs of the organization.

From now on, it will pay more attention to the individual and be less selective. Defence offers challenging work with more development and career prospects. Training programs are being modernized and the training capacity significantly expanded.

The campaign will be visible on television, online, and in cinemas starting March 28. There will also be attention in newspapers.
