How do we support the military?
Hear from our very own Simon Hesketh, previously an Air Engineering Technician in the Royal Navy, and now a SHEQ Manager with JN Bentley:
“My passion for safety started in the forces. When it comes to flight safety, the consequences of getting it wrong can be catastrophic. Making the transition to work for JN Bentley was easy, as the company ethos shares much of the same values that I'd become accustomed to in the Navy.
“Values like 'commitment' to a world class safety strategy, having 'respect' for one another, showing 'courage' when it comes to safety leadership, and recognising that a team of people working with a unified purpose can achieve great things. Some of the skills I'd developed in Service are well suited to a SHEQ role, including risk assessment, attention to detail, communication, being calm in a crisis, and getting up early! The company also recognises the value of investing in their people and providing an environment where people can thrive.” - Simon Hesketh, SHEQ Manager.
Career opportunities
We’re now looking for Service leavers who can bring their unique talents to a new environment. A strong work ethic, problem-solving abilities, attention to detail and an ability to work in high-pressure situations with diverse teams, are just some of the skills that can be easily transferred to a role in engineering and construction.
