Every year, over 14,000 individuals leave the Armed Forces. They are of widely different ages, have a range of qualifications and experience and offer a rich source of talent. Everyone who leaves will have different personal circumstances and aspirations, but the adjustment from the military environment to the civilian world is an issue common to all.

Veterans and service leavers are a highly sought-after talent pool of skilled and adaptable individuals, ready to bring their wealth of experience to the civilian job market.

Military Service fosters leadership, organisational skills, resilience and many other brilliant qualities which are a great asset to any business. Members of the forces community have a positive mindset, are able to get things done and aren’t afraid of responsibility. Military people are flexible, as they’re used to being thrown blind into situations anywhere in the world and getting on with it.

This is a well-trained, work-ready talent pool.
