The organisation is also responsible for over 30 staff who work directly supporting 14,000 Cadets in four London sectors.
We employ specialists in estate management, working with young people, employer and community engagement, commercial lettings, communications, and administrative support. As a small, diverse team we have plenty of opportunities to support colleagues working outside our area of expertise with the opportunity to learn new skills.
We also get to work with and for thousands of London's brilliant Reservists and fantastic Cadets.
