Submarine Warfare Officer

About the Role

Pursuing a civilian career doesn’t have to mean getting stuck in the corporate world. As a current or former Navy Submarine Warfare Officer, there are plenty of part‑time opportunities to use your leadership skills and talent in an environment that is constantly changing. Family obligations, career aspirations, and the desire to settle down often lead many Officers to leave active duty.

However, in the Navy Reserve you can achieve all of the above while still continuing your Naval career.

The mission of the Navy Reserve is to provide strategic depth and deliver operational capabilities to the Navy, Marine Corps, and Joint forces, in times of peace or war. Navy Reserve Sailors seamlessly support and actively aid that mission, all while continuing to lead their independent lives in the civilian world.

The Navy Reserve offers an excellent opportunity to continue your service and earn outstanding benefits with the flexibility to pursue a civilian career, higher education, and family commitments.

• Receive 4 days of basic pay for only 2 days worked (16 hours) each drill weekend
• Opportunities to acquire new skills and sharpen existing ones, enhancing your civilian career
• Educational assistance
• Tax‑free, worldwide Navy Exchange and commissary privileges for you and your family
• VA guaranteed home loans
• Low‑cost insurance options, including up to $500,000 in life insurance
• Travel opportunities
• Earn points toward retirement benefits every time you drill
• Retirement after 20 qualifying years
• TRICARE

The Navy Reserve Sailor also continues to hold educational opportunities through Tuition Assistance, DANTES, and your post‑9/11 or Montgomery GI Bill. Further education opportunities are available through the U.S. Naval War College and Senior Enlisted Academy, as well as certifications and licenses available through the Navy Credentialing Opportunities Online (COOL).
