We are delighted to announce that Heropreneurs has received a silver award from the Defence Employer Recognition Scheme.
The scheme, which was launched in 2014, recognises employer support for the Armed Forces Covenant and defence personnel. It includes bronze, silver, and gold awards for employer organisations that pledge, demonstrate, or advocate support for defence and the armed forces community, as well as values that align with the Armed Forces Covenant.
Becci Parriss, CEO of Heropreneurs, commented ‘With the UK military family at the heart of everything Heropreneurs does, it is imperative that we lead by example, recognising the benefit to our organisation of employing and supporting our Armed Forces community. I am very proud to share that we have now achieved the Silver Employer Recognition Scheme Award.
As we build our team, I very much look forward to continuing to create opportunities which provide the flexible and inclusive environment necessary for our employees to not only 'get by', but to develop and thrive in their chosen career path without having to sacrifice their identity as a veteran, reservist, or military partner.’
