You are invited to join our Association at a special online event to mark Reserves Day and Armed Forces Day, ahead of Armed Forces Week.

Due to Covid-19 restrictions we are unable to host our annual Armed Forces Covenant networking event in person.  But this year we are partnering with the Greater Birmingham Chambers of Commerce, to hold this event online for the first time.

The event will be able to provide you with  further awareness of how your business can benefit from working with Defence.

We have an excellent range of speakers lined up for you, including:

• Neil Jackson, Director of DRM  at the Ministry of Defence, will  provide an overview of current objectives and the work being done to support the armed forces community in the workplace
• Steve Lees, Armed Forces Programme Manager at Jaguar Land Rover, will give an overview of the how JLR  supports its military personnel and what employing military personnel can bring to an organisation
• Bryan Alexander, Employer Relations Manager at Career Transition Partnership (CTP), will provide an overview of the benefits of working with CTP– a high quality, no cost recruitment service for organisations seeking motivated people who are leaving the Armed Forces.

You can join us on Tuesday 16^th June between 2pm – 3pm through Zoom.  Please can you confirm your attendance by emailing Bobby Birdi at wm-reed@rfca.mod.uk. We will then send you a calendar invite with the Zoom meeting link.

If you have any questions about this event, or about your Armed Forces Covenant, do get in touch. Our Employer Engagement are keen to support you as required with any questions you have related to Defence People issues.

You can find out more about partnering with Defence on our employers webpage.
