Army National Guard Part Time Plumber Job Description

As a Plumber in the Army National Guard, you will build the skills you need for a lucrative civilian career while installing and maintaining any number of pipe systems in the Army National Guard.

Like a civilian plumber, you will work on pipe systems for water, steam, and waste, as well as hydraulic and pneumatic systems. Duties include reading drawings, plans, and specifications; planning the layout of pipe systems; and installing and maintaining pipe systems and plumbing fixtures. This will require the ability to work with pipe of various materials and different pipe connection methods.

Plus, you’ll be building a better a future. The skills you learn as an Army National Guard Plumber could help prepare you for a civilian career in commercial and residential contracting. With additional certifications, you could work for public utility companies, plumbing contractors, or as a self employed contractor.

Earn while you learn

As an Army National Plumber, you will learn these valuable job skills while getting up to a $20,000 enlistment bonus, earning a regular paycheck, and qualifying for tuition assistance. Instead of paying to learn these skills, get paid to learn.

After Basic Training, where you will learn fundamental Soldiering skills, you will attend approximately five weeks of Advanced Individual Training where you’ll learn what you need to get started as an Army National Guard Plumber.

As your skills increase, so will your responsibilities. Advanced Plumbing Specialists take on more challenging projects including training and supervising other Soldiers and performing inspections of plumbing facilities.
