Career path

Vehicle Mechanic

British Army

Started 03/2021 to Present

Company

What do you like about your job and the company?

Before joining the Army I had never left the UK, since I have joined i have been to 5 different countries learning new things and gaining experiences I thought I'd never be able to have, from gaining more experience in the trade to taking on adventurous training, the British Army has lots to offer.

Greatest achievements

Getting through the first 2 phases of the Army is the greatest achievement I've had so far as once I completed it it opened up my career in the army and now I am traveling all over, going on deployment, going on adventure training and seizing every opportunity I can.

Been in the Army can sometimes be arduous, fight through it and reap the benefits. Whether it be mental or physical robustness. You will surpass it and shine through the other side!

Top Insider Advice

It's always better to be at the bottom of a ladder you wan't to climb, than half way up one you don't. Okay... I promise I won't do anymore cheesy quotes from now on, but it really is true. I've always thought of this, as you can see from the various jobs I've had, I've always been looking for that one job that ticks every box for things you want out of a career. Don't be persuaded into doing a job you're not set on, just because it may result you getting your start date early. Or if you need a qualification for a particular job. Get that qualification! If it means you getting that career/job role that you really want, then go for it. Don't settle for second best.
