Join our ex-forces community and establish your second career Whether you’re a veteran, reservist, or cadet, we’re committed to helping you build a rewarding new career path.

Expleo is a global engineering, technology, and consulting service provider that partners with leading organisations to guide them through their business transformation, helping them achieve operational excellence while future-proofing their businesses.

We champion the recruitment of ex-forces personnel, actively recruiting talent from the armed forces community each year in recognition of the valuable experience and skills they possess.


We provide Service leavers with the opportunity to develop the skills they’ve learned in the military, and build a new career in commercial engineering, cybersecurity, and project management (to name a few).

Ex-forces community

Service leavers are represented throughout our organisation – from recruitment teams to management – acting as a central source of expertise that informs our engagement with customers in the defence business.

Having such a rich pool of ex-military talent available within our business means that when you join us, you’ll be assigned an Expleo mentor from the ex-forces community to provide support and advice throughout your career.

Career development

We offer structured career development for all our employees, with ongoing guidance to help you maximise personal and professional growth.

For example, as an engineer you can benefit from a career path mapped against the Engineering Council UK-SPEC, helping you achieve CEng status.

Ex-forces benefits

We understand the specific needs of military families and spouses, appreciating the additional flexibility and support required during a partner’s deployment.

In turn, we offer 25 days of paid holiday per year plus bank holidays, as well as additional time off for volunteering activities, training, and personal development.

We can also provide extra support where needed; for example, sabbaticals can be granted if you’re required to serve full-time cover whilst your CO is on deployment.
