The job market is increasingly working in the favour of jobseekers from the Armed Forces community. The skills gaps facing employers are forcing them to take more risk in their hiring decisions (especially in terms of commercial experience) and to access lesser known or harder to access talent pools. SMJ is working closely with a number of employers who are building specific programmes to help people into some of these roles, especially in digital/ cyber, where military security skills, training and experience are directly transferable. To this end, SMJ's free Cyber Jumpstart programme is proving very popular, not just to jobseekers but also to employers on the hunt for quality talent.

Here's a selection of SMJ's open roles. See Opportunities Marketplace for more.
