What do you like about your job and the company?
I get to travel around the UK an see new places. One week i could be all the way up in northern Scotland delivering presentations and other engagement activities and the next week i could be at Wembley stadium engaging and talking with people to promote the Royal Engineer. Because of the nature of my current role i get to chat with potential and future soldier all around the country. I go to many major events like fairs and festivals that is being held and i have the chance to promote the Corp to all that is interested to know more.
Greatest achievements

I honestly believe it's worth at least trying life in the Army. If you don't like it, you can leave with a story to tell, and you'll have gained some life skills. If you do like it, you'll have a rewarding career that you can be proud of, you'll grow in confidence, find mates for life, and see the world. The army application process is quite unique and it’s an experience in itself. Even if you're unsuccessful you'll have that story to tell and you'll definitely have learned something about yourself. Also, most times, just because you've been unsuccessful doesn't mean you can't try again.

Someone once told me to never give up on something I was passionate about, but to find a way of making it happen. No matter how long it takes or how many push backs you get, if you are passionate about something, aim to succeed.
