Top Insider Advice

When I first applied for the Army I knew I could better my qualifications and travel around the world, but never knew I could gain so much more, for example I would have never of said in 10 years time I want to be a skiing instructor, but the Army has given me that experience and helped me work towards it.

Career path

Company

What do you like about your job and the company?

Working for the Army has gave me more confidence, qualifications and experiences I most defiantly wouldn't of gained from working in a warehouse. With my job I have travelled all over the UK, and other countries such as, Belgium, Falklands, America, Africa, Norway, Oman, France. I have also done mountain walking, skiing, caving, rock climbing, mountain biking and Kayaking with the Army for Adventure training.

Greatest achievements

Promotion in the Army. When you start to promote in the Army its not just about earning more money or having rank over other people its what you do as a leader, I most enjoy helping others to develop themselves to become a better leader for when they promote. If you help someone who then promotes its a great feeling.
