This is the rank most soldiers start out at. You still get all the benefits of Army life, like good rates of basic pay, free healthcare, and subsidised food and accommodation. But you’re not in charge of anyone, so you can focus on using your skills. Every promotion after this gets you more pay.
Now you’ve got some experience, you take on extra responsibility by leading a small team of soldiers. It’s your job to check that their work is up to standard, and that they’ve got all the skills and help they need. And if they’ve got a problem, they talk to you first.
You’ve got day-to-day leadership experience. The next step is to go on a special course to develop your leadership and management skills, which prepares you to lead an even larger team. You still use your own trade skills but you also set tasks and help develop the other soldiers’ abilities.
