Description

BFRS events are designed to connect forward-thinking companies with exceptional talent from the Armed Forces Community (AFC)!

Discover and explore diverse industry sectors, gain insights into current job market trends, understand the qualifications sought by employers, and connect with potential training providers, including those approved by the Enhanced Learning Credits (ELC) scheme. BFRS is committed to assisting you in acquiring new qualifications for future employment opportunities.

Crucially, BFRS collaborates with industry exhibitors who are either signatories to the Armed Forces Covenant or are pro-AFC. This reflects a recognition of the distinctive skills and experiences inherent in the Forces community.

At BFRS we believe that our Face to Face Careers Fairs, allow members of the Armed Forces Community the opportunity to network with forces friendly companies and promote the skills and experiences they can bring to a future employer!

We will be travelling to new locations to host our Roadshows this year, including Stafford, Plymouth and Wales. These 3 ‘mini events’ will provide a thriving platform for highly skilled and motivated individuals from the Armed Forces Community (AFC) to explore new career pathways.

🤝 This event will provide you, the AFC, the chance to gain exclusive industry knowledge, and network with potential training providers to enhance your skills.  Without the need of having to travel hours….
