Career path

Team Leader at JAMC

British Army

From 06/2024 to 09/2024

Company

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.

Throughout selection and training things will not always go your way, it is designed to be tough and challenge you to give you the tools and know how to succeed in the challenging job as a soldier. It is vitally important that when you have a tough day you have the drive and determination to get up go again and get better. Anyone can do this as long as you give yourself the right mindset.

Haribo (or morale-i-bo) will get you through everything. The only thing you can ever prep entirely for is fitness so work hard. Treat everyone how you want to be treated, you never know when you might rely on them whether it be people you go through training with or colleagues and friends you meet along the way- the Army is a small place!

The Army provides a whole host of challenges at every level, but it also provides you with the tools to rise to those challenges, and if you so choose, surpass them. The training that the Army provides allows you to find your true and best self, to push yourself and test yourself - work out what you want to achieve, then use your new found skills to achieve even more!
