Telent celebrates Gold Award for armed forces support

Added: Over a year ago by Telent

Telent is thrilled to announce the business has been awarded the prestigious Gold Award as part of the Defence Employer Recognition Scheme (ERS).

The scheme recognises the commitment and support that organisations demonstrate to defence and the armed forces community. It includes bronze, silver, and gold awards for employer organisations that align their values with the Armed Forces Covenant (a promise ensuring that those who serve, or who have served, in the armed forces and their families are treated fairly).

The Gold Award is the highest honour granted by the Ministry of Defence as part of this scheme. It acknowledges employers who have demonstrated outstanding commitment to the Armed Forces Covenant and have gone above and beyond in their efforts to support armed forces personnel and their families. It also acknowledges Telent’s active support in the recruitment of service leavers, reservists and adult cadet volunteers.

Jo Gretton, CEO

“Previously, Telent was the proud recipient of the Silver Award, which recognised our efforts in providing exceptional support to veterans, reservists, and military families. The transition from Silver to Gold status reflects our continued growth and the enhancement of our initiatives aimed at fostering a supportive environment for current and former armed forces personnel.

At Telent, we believe that our success is intertwined with the strength of our community. By supporting those who serve, or have served, in the armed forces, we not only honour their contributions but also enrich our own culture with the unique skills and experiences they bring.”

 

Peter Moir, MD Network Services

“This is a fantastic accolade and really supports our planned growth into the Defence market, which has been a key strategy area we believe we can do more in for some time now. We are very proud to be recognised with this award and look forward to working further with the armed forces community.”
