Armed Forces
Our Net Zero Batallion
We’re creating the workforce of the future as we transition to Net Zero and we want you to be part of it. We're looking for more service leavers, veterans, reservists and military spouses, and partners to join our team. With opportunities at all levels, across our organisation, we’ve created a focused package of support, developed for you, by our ex-forces community.
Anthony's story
Anthony never thought he would leave the military, but after 12 years this choice was taken out of his hands when he lost most of his hearing and could no longer progress his career.
Inspired by the idea of continuing to serve his country in a completely different way, he found his next steps with British Gas.
Linden's story
After a life-changing incident in Afghanistan, Linden returned home unsure about what his future could hold.
But a Smart Meter Apprenticeship with British Gas helped him to find his new purpose. From serving in the military to serving our customers.

Leaving the forces can be a disorientating and emotionally challenging time.
Our ex-forces network aims to make the transition to civvy street as comfortable as possible, providing support and mentorship along the way.
