Partners
The OnBoarding Officers Accelerated Non-Executive Director programme has received astounding levels of support in response to the programme’s mission to resettle exiting military officers and SNCOs into corporate civilian life as highly qualified non-executive directors. These amazing partners play a vitally important role in helping to create our OnBoarding Officers community and make this programme truly unique.
OnBoarding Officers is proud to announce that the Officers’ Association is endorsing and sponsoring the programme.
Clarke Willmott LLP is sponsoring the Manchester cohorts in 2019 as well as hosting events.
Central Hall Westminster and KUDOS sponsored the London launch and is also sponsoring the London cohorts throughout 2019.
Meet Our Partners
Officers’ Association
Established in 1920, the Officers’ Association exists to help officers as they transition from a military to a civilian career. The aim of any career transition is to achieve a fulfilling and sustainable career; one that takes into account individual circumstances, aspirations and skills. We help to make this happen. We champion the skills and qualities of the officer job seeker and provide evidence based research in support of our work. Last year we worked with over 4,700 officers from across the Armed Forces as they moved into civilian employment.
