As part of Armed Forces Week, we’re proud to recognise and celebrate the vital role that reservists play, both within the Armed Forces and within our business. One of our employees is soon heading off on a year‑long deployment as part of their reservist commitment. We’re incredibly proud to support them.
Our Commitment to Reservists
Supporting reservists provides benefit to our people and our business. As a company, we provide paid leave for reservist employees to complete their annual training commitments, fully support mobilisation, and work proactively with reservist employees to ensure a smooth transition before and after deployment.
This approach allows our people to fulfil their military responsibilities without financial or professional disadvantage; while knowing they have a supportive employer behind them.
Skills That Strengthen Our Business
Reservist service offers unique opportunities for personal development and upskilling, often in high‑pressure, fast‑moving and unfamiliar environments. Leadership, teamwork, adaptability, decision‑making and resilience are just some of the skills developed during deployment.
When our reservist employees return, they bring these enhanced capabilities back into the business, strengthening teams, improving problem‑solving and adding fresh perspectives. It’s an investment that delivers long‑term value for everyone.
Encouraging Veterans and Reservists to Join Us
Our support doesn’t stop with those already in the business. We actively advertise roles on military and veteran platforms, encouraging reservists and veterans to consider a career with us.
Those with military experience bring invaluable expertise, discipline and insight, while we provide a workplace that understands their background and supports a smooth transition into civilian employment. It’s a relationship that works both ways.
Proud to Play Our Part
During Armed Forces Week, we want to say a sincere thank you to all reservists, veterans and members of the Armed Forces, including those within our own organisation, for the commitment and service they give.
We’re proud to play our part in supporting those who serve, and we remain committed to creating an inclusive, supportive workplace where reservists can thrive.
