Attention! Look at this golden beauty. Today at our Driver of the Year competition we unveiled our new gold cab in recognition of our recent Gold Armed Forces Covenant award. A shiny symbol of our commitment to supporting those who serve and other members of the Armed Forces network. In just four years we have transformed our Bronze award into Gold. In that time, we launched our Armed Forces colleague network, published a Reserve and Cadet Force Policy, attended various recruitment events and partnership networks across the country and launched our inclusive recruitment programme Shine, to name just a few. Like our new gold lorry, we have a journey ahead of us as we continue to champion and create rewarding career opportunities for armed forces personnel and their families. #DriverOfTheYear | #ArmedForces | #GoldAward | #ArmedForcesCovenant | #GoldERS24 | Defence Relationship Management (DRM)
