2021 saw G&T reinforce its support for members of the Armed Forces Community by signing the Armed Forces Covenant – a public declaration that we are a forces friendly employer.
Our commitments include supporting the employment of veterans and reservists as well as promoting the Armed Forces.
G&T already employs a number of veterans and reservists recognising the transferable skills they bring but one of our core objectives for 2021 was to increase representation of this group within our business and signing the Covenant is one step on this journey.
G&T has worked in the defence sector for a number of years, most recently as part of the Paragon JV, on the Defence Equipment & Support project in Bristol where we are bringing best practice commercial skills from the construction industry and applying these across the DE&S commercial function.
