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
Based on the work i did in Estonia on operations. I was running numerous troop training, organising battle group training for Bulldog drivers and commander courses. I was presented a BG Commanders coin in recognition for the work i produced.

When going through selection for the Army, it can be very tempting to try and be the person you think they are looking for. That might work in the short term, but in the longer term, or when you are under pressure / tired / in command, that doesn't work. It is far better to be the person you really are, with your own quirks and personality, and to utilise your own skills and abilities. The Army can teach you how to lead and think tactically, it can develop your fitness and your endurance, it can't change how you start out as a person.

It is important to always remember the Armies Values and Standards, notably the 'CDRILS'. Courage, Discipline, Respect for Others, Integrity, Loyalty and Selfless Commitment. Throughout your career, you will be tested on these things, whether on camp, or on Operations. As soldiers, it is our duty to follow these values, these help make us efficient in all aspects of our jobs.
