Who we are
Atos is the global leader in secure and decarbonised digital, with a range of market-leading digital solutions along with consultancy services, digital security and decarbonisation offerings.
How we work
Open, informal, flexible communication sets the tone of our company.
We work together to deliver the high-quality, tailored solutions our clients expect, all around the world. Solutions that can only come from teams bringing fresh ideas, different perspectives, and individual flair.
Our industry expertise
We work across many industries, including the Public Sector and Defence industry. Our support for the Defence industry includes a Battle Management System, Reconnaissance, Foundation IT Systems, Air-land-Sea Electronics and Cyber Security solutions. However, if you’re looking for a fresh start away from the Defence industry, we also offer solutions to the Finance and Insurance Industry, Health and Life Sciences, Manufacturing, Resources and Services, and Telecommunications and Media.
Why should Service leavers join us?
Atos has its own Armed Forces Network (AFN) that supports veterans, reservists, family members and all employees wishing to show support for the Armed Forces community.
Atos have proudly held a Gold Award since 2016 for the Armed Forces Covenant. An employer recognition scheme for businesses and organisations who wish to demonstrate their support for the Armed Forces community and uphold the principles of the covenant. Atos pledged to recognise the wealth of skills and experience of the Armed Forces community.
We run various initiatives to support the armed forces community both within Atos and those external to our company. Most recently, the Armed Forces Network has set up a mentoring scheme, where Atos employees mentor Service leavers; helping them navigate civilian life and providing advice and guidance on the job market within or external to Atos. An example of where this has worked brilliantly can be seen below.
Atos would be thrilled to welcome more Service leavers to our workforce who can bring all of the knowledge and skills that are unique to the Armed Forces community.
Case Study - Mentorship Programme
Leigh was an ex-Army Officer and at the time of contact was coming to the end of his service, looking for a job that would allow him to remain living in Germany once leaving the forces. Leigh was introduced to Mark Donovan, a Client Executive Partner in Health and Life sciences, an ex-RN Engineer Officer who is the chair of the Armed Forces Network. Leigh wanted to apply for a job in Atos as a Cyber Security Consultant and was looking for help in preparing for the interview as well as advice on transitioning to a civilian business. Mark introduced Leigh to Steve Bishop who helped mentor him through this process.
