Cobra win Bronze award from the Armed Forces Employer Recognition Scheme.
Cobra has shown its commitment to supporting Forces veterans, reservists and cadet volunteers. We offer a guaranteed interview scheme for veterans (provided they hold the correct qualifications) and extra leave and support for reservists and cadet volunteers.
Commenting on the announcement of the 2019 Employer Recognition Scheme Silver awards, Defence Secretary, Ben Wallace said:
“These awards recognise the outstanding support for our armed forces from employers across Britain and I would like to thank and congratulate each and every one.
“Regardless of size, location or sector, employing ex-forces personnel is good for business and this year we have doubled the number of awards in recognition of the fantastic support they give.”
Minister for Defence People and Veterans Johnny Mercer said:
“Veterans make a huge contribution to businesses across the country and it’s fantastic to see a record breaking number of organisations recognised for their support.
“We’re working closely with businesses to help them further understand the huge value that veterans, reservists and military spouses can bring to their organisation.”
Cobra will be presented the award by Her Majesty’s Lord Lieutenant of Hampshire in the National Museum of the Royal Navy in Portsmouth.
