Life after the military
At AWE, we recognise the value of military experience – not just in technical skill, but in leadership, resilience, and purpose. Whether you’re a veteran, service leaver, or reservist, we’re here to help you build a meaningful second career.
Making the transition from military to a civilian role can be daunting, but you can be assured that we truly value the unique skills you’ll bring us. We have a strong network within AWE of veterans and reservists that have successfully made the transition.
We pro-actively support and encourage members of the Reservist community to continue their roles alongside their day jobs. As a signatory of the Armed Forces covenant, we are committed to recognising the valuable contribution that military veterans, reservists and cadet volunteers make to the business and society.
Transition with purpose

You won’t be alone. Our Armed Forces, Veterans, Reservists and Cadet Network connects people with shared experiences, offering support, camaraderie, and a space to stay connected to your roots.
Flexibility for Reservists
We actively support reservists with policies that make space for training and mobilisation.
We will respect and support your commitment to service.
Work/life balance
Transitioning from military to civilian life can feel like a big step. To make it easier, we offer a nine-day fortnight, 270 hours of holiday and the chance to continuously develop your career.
