Infanteers (Urban, Domestic, and Mountain Ops Specialists)

We are looking for men and women who can give 100%, and then when they feel like a bag of hammers, can give another 10% just to prove that The Argylls are the best Army Reserve unit in LFCA. We need people who can think on their feet, and who are tough as nails.

Being an Infanteer isn't for everyone, and certainly, The Argylls aren't for everyone who think they are infanteers. You need to want to be the best to join this unit, as we train for the most difficult types of combat: urban and mountain ops.

But, with a little grit and determination on your part, we can make you a great soldier!

Give us a call when you decided to put yourself to the test of being the best! 905.541.ARMY

Pipers/Drummers

Want to be in the army, but don't want all the front-line grunt work? Ever want to learn how to play the bag-pipes and get paid, plus do all the fun army stuff on the side?

Well, you can get it here by being a part of the Argyll Pipes and Drums.

No experience necessary, we will train you to be a ceremonial drummer or bag-piper, while still learning how to do all the fun army stuff.

The plus side is that you will get loads of job opportunities and be able to travel around the world for competitions and events.

For more info, check >> here << for the Argyll Pipes/Drums website.

Infantry Officers

We are looking for people currently in college/university, or who have a college/university diploma/degree, to train as Infantry Officers.

I'm not going to lie to you -- the process is highly competitive and the life is tough. No late mornings and gourmet coffee here! You need to have some leadership skills, be flexible, able to adapt to difficult situations, perform in a high stress environment, and overcome adversity in order to make it as an Infantry Officer.

Yes, being an Infantry Officer is not easy, but it is highly rewarding and comes at the end of the day when you know you've made a difference.

This is the part-time job job with full-time satisfaction. And, if you love it a lot, we can even offer full-time opportunities within the unit, on a full-time tasking within the Reserves, or can tranfer you to the Regular Force.

Call us now at 905.541.2769 if you have what it takes to be an Argyll Infantry Officer.
