Training Support & Employment Opportunities

Get in touch with us

At VTA Recruitment we are committed to supporting service leavers, ex-military and their families having witnessed the employment difficulties faced by former military personnel in the north west we want to make a difference.

We do this by offering a consultative and informed recruitment service with the goal of helping YOU find long term employment.

We work with ex-military men and women to match them with companies that appreciate the valuable skill set they offer.

Don’t take our word for it ask the many veterans we have already help to find temporary or full-time employment within the logistics sector.

Why Employ Ex-Military?

Ex-military candidates are highly trained, disciplined, and motivated. They typically possess an inherent sense of loyalty, integrity and respect for authority combined with team-working and communication skills. They have worked in some of the world’s most challenging environments, able to thrive under immense pressure, they are self-disciplined and committed to getting the job done.

With the support of our clients, we help create pathways for service leavers, ex-military and veterans who are looking to start or continue a career in logistics.

To take advantage of the outstanding qualities ex-military personnel can bring to your company, call us for a chat today!

Investing In You

We will assist you with CV writing, job application forms and interview preparation if you require it. We will support you every step of the way and there is also aftercare support while in employment.

We recognise and want to champion the unique qualities that ex-military can bring to their employment role. Research conducted by The Royal British Legion reveals the skills possessed by veterans are a close match to the skills shortages many employers face.

If you are ex-services and looking for employment, or if you are an employer looking for exceptional candidates to fill your vacancies, then we can help.

Testimonials

Since leaving the military I worked as a Class 2 driver and struggled to find long term employment that offered opportunities to progress. I came across Louis at VTA who offered me fully funded training to get my Class 1 licence. I passed the training and with help from VTA, I was able to start full time employment as a Class 1 driver. This has made a huge difference to my life and income. The full process with VTA has been very efficient and professional and I’d recommend them to anyone.

I am still a serving soldier but have been doing some driving through VTA at weekends to gain some experience doing some C+E work with several companies. I have found the application and route to work pretty seamless; I have always been given work when I am available and have always been paid on time for the hours worked without any issues. I would and have recommended VTA to other serving members.

After leaving the army it was hard to find stable, reliable work. I already had my HGV licence from the military but no experience on civy street. I was recommended to speak to Louis at VTA and he offered me support and the chance to do familiarisation training which gave me the confidence to start driving for companies. VTA found me employment and I currently work as a Class 2 driver. VTA have been a massive help and I couldn’t thank them enough.

Thank you VTA
I joined the army in 1996 where I spent 5 years as a signaller, serving in the UK andGermany. After leaving the army I found it very difficult to find long-term substantial employment. After being introduced to Louis at VTA I was able to use my previous HGV licence with extra training provided by VTA and get back into HGV Class 1 work. I have now been employed through VTA for the past few years and I am now extremely happy with my role. All I can say is thank you VTA.
