Summary at a Glance

The MoD said its careers advice service, Operation Ascend, would be expanded to support all veterans “regardless of when they left service”.

The department added that the service would offer a “broader range of job support” and work with industry bodies to “make sure businesses are set up to make the most of the talents veterans have to offer”.

Ian Fortune, head of pathways at Centrica, said: “Working with the forces employment charity through the delivery of Op Ascend has enabled high-calibre service leavers and the wider military family to bring their significant talent and skill sets into our organisation with confidence.”.

Thousands of veterans and their family members will be able to access an expanded careers support service, the Ministry of Defence has said.

“Op Ascend is a natural extension to the Government’s resettlement scheme, enabling veterans and their families to further maximise their potential and take their careers to the next level.
