The commercial features a woman completing an average day at work with the Army, with narration addressing the concerns women may have about enlisting, such as lifestyle changes.
Army marketing manager Kate Mathias told Mumbrella: “It was about dispelling some myths about the army, and the flexibility that it provides as an employer and educate the target audience that you can be a mum, you can be a girl and you can be feminine and you can also be in the army.”
“We’re trying to encourage greater numbers of women in the army and overcome some barriers to consideration that are mostly based on incorrect assumptions,” Mathias said.
The campaign will run across TV, press, outdoor and digital displays.

Just a small note – but is this the broadcast version?? Note audio edits with no mix between 8′ & 10’…am I being too picky? Has to be an oversight with version control for digital…
