Carbon60
As part of the Impellam Group, engineering and technical recruitment specialists Carbon60 – recognised as Forces Covenant civilian employment support providers and one of the UK’s Top 25 Veteran Employers – have been committed supporters and partners of the military and their personnel, including those who are currently serving in our Armed Forces, for many years.
Not only do they support and celebrate service personnel and their families through sponsorship of various events but also strive to help ex-forces and retired veterans as they navigate their journey back into civilian life.
Understanding that the military-to-civilian transition can be a significant challenge and concern, utilising the experience, expertise and connections of their people – including some who are veterans themselves – Carbon60 help to create new career opportunities for service leavers; opportunities that are matched to their skills, expertise and experience.
But more than that, they offer the advice, support and guidance needed to help kick-start a post-service career too.
The insights and support that experienced people provide can be invaluable to any ex-forces personnel or veteran who may be unsure how to start again – not just in their career, but in everyday civilian life.
Carbon60 help them find a way, by sharing experience and knowledge; helping service leavers tailor CV’s and better identify and showcase their skills; and point them in the right direction, connecting them with employers across a variety of sectors.
These employers include many who Carbon60 work in partnership with; companies who share the same passion for supporting ex-forces and veterans, recognising their skills, discipline and commitment and the potential to apply it to a career outside of service.
Via Carbon60, globally-recognised organisations such as STS Aviation provide career opportunities that have been created specifically with ex-forces and veterans in mind – ranging from apprenticeships offering chances to build-on and develop existing skills and qualifications to full-time roles in which people can take on and thrive within.
As part of their ongoing commitment to the military community, Carbon60 are also dedicated to supporting military families as they also experience the journey from service life to civilian life, which for many can be difficult to navigate and understand.
They provide guidance on what support is available for those facing physical or mental health challenges, struggling to adjust to civilian life, or having difficulty finding work or housing. They can also connect individuals with specialist care and assist in securing financial support.
Carbon60 will continue to provide long-term support for our brave military service men and women and their families, champion their skills, and remain dedicated to finding them a secure, rewarding, and enjoyable route back into civilian life.
So, if you’re a military leaver or spouse/partner and need help beginning or building a better civilian career journey, be sure to get in touch.
Carbon60 is part of Impellam which is a connected group offering unparalleled workforce and STEM talent solutions expertise to provide organisations with mission-critical skillsets to future-proof businesses.
