Discover your new direction with Expleo. Whether a veteran, reservist or cadet we are committed to helping you develop a rewarding new career path. We champion hiring ex-forces personnel, actively recruiting talent from the armed forces community in recognition of the valuable experience, skills and talent. Each year, we welcome many taking their first steps into the corporate world with us. Expleo offers the opportunity for service leavers and veterans to take the skills they have learned from the armed forces to build a new career and develop even further.

Our commitment to the Armed Forces Community

As an engineering, technology, and consulting services provider, Expleo recognises veterans' operational excellence and encourages them to join its 17,000-strong global team. With over 40 years' experience in optimising processes and systems, Expleo partners with organisations to drive business transformation.

The opportunity to diversify into new industries enables veterans to transfer military engineering skills into Expleo’s work with diverse OEM customers and partners. Veterans' relevance has never been higher, yet many employers overlook their value. Expleo understands what veterans offer, employing over 40 in the UK, with numbers growing. Veterans are represented across the organisation, from recruitment to management, ensuring career progression opportunities.

Recently awarded the Armed Forces Covenant Bronze Award, Expleo is registered with CTP and attends careers fairs. A dedicated forces careers portal will launch soon. Most roles are in engineering and are of interest to Army, Navy, and Air Force leavers, particularly those able to support equipment they operated during service. Other opportunities suit veterans with transferable skills, such as administration and project management. Ex-forces personnel are known to excel in project management, applying their military experience of ‘getting things done’.

Entry-level roles offer starting salaries of £30,000. Flexible working arrangements and location contracts typically provide 37-hour weeks, with core hours from 10am to 3pm. Employees receive 25 days’ annual leave plus bank holidays. Established reservist policies include 10 extra days of paid leave for training. Additional support, such as a six-month sabbatical for a deployed Commanding Officer, is also available.

Expleo understands the needs of military spouses, offering flexibility during deployments. HR policies ensure personalised support is available. Structured career development maximises growth for all employees, with engineers following an Engineering Council career path. Veterans are assigned mentors from Expleo’s military community for guidance.

The 50+ member Armed Forces Group provides news, peer support, and insight into defence customers. In summary, Expleo actively encourages veterans to apply their operational skills within its engineering environment through dedicated recruitment and ongoing development. Its military network demonstrates a strong commitment to forces talent.
