Career path

What do you like about your job and the company?
From been in the JAMC to deploying worldwide to conduct Movements, everything that goes and comes back to the UK has at some point gone through a Movement Controller. 29 Regiment RLC is one of the busiest operational camps in the UK that contributes to Operations, Exercises and Humanitarian aid. So my motivation stems from knowing we make a massive impact on their success. Knowing that my progression throughout my career as a Movement Controller in the Army can be transferred into civilian qualifications making me more of a valuable asset to future potential employers.
Greatest achievements
I was deployed to aid in the biggest Non-Combatant Evacuation Operation (NEO) since WW2, OPERATION PITTING. We processed over 15,000 British nationals and eligible Afghans in 16 days. Myself and my team set the record for the most amount of passengers loaded to a C-17 Aircraft. This operation had pushed me past my mental and physical state but I fought through it and the outcome was immense. I had changed the lives of so many people, made friends and even had a present from a young British Afghan child which was a picture she drew of me, I will never forget the experience and I couldn't be prouder of all the boys and girls that deployed on that operation.

The army is more than what is seen in dramatised film and television. It’s a group of had working individuals who have learnt to be a part of the army, learnt their strengths and weakness, learnt what kind of job and job role suits them best. There is so much opportunity it is impossible to write it all here but information about the army has never been so easily accessible. The wealth of insight that can be gleaned, to help you determine the right career path in the army, is massive and can help you decide. Even if that decision is not to join the army, you won’t know until you have a look.

I loved being a Tank Commander, i worked alongside some of the best people in the Army. That community is why i joined the Royal Tank Regiment. I was surrounded by people who i liked and allowed me to be myself. Although i have changed path in the Army i always have my Regimental family to return to. They form the foundation of my new skillset and taught me lessons that make me successful today.
