The Benx Group are honored, humbled, and very excited to announce that we have been awarded the prestigious Armed Forces Covenant’s Defence Employer Recognition Scheme Gold Award!
The ERS Gold Award is the highest honor for organisations that advocate for and support the Armed Forces Community in a variety of ways. It recognises the ongoing efforts to champion and support reservists, cadet forces, and veterans.
Our Group CEO, Dr. Kevin Ruane, served in the British Army himself and has seen first-hand how vital support for Armed Forces personnel and their families is during and following service. Thus, he has been instrumental in advocating for and driving the support of the Armed Forces Community within the Benx Group, leading us to achieve the Bronze, Silver, and now, finally, the Gold ERS award.
Please see below a quote from him on what this means to him personally –
“Thank you to everyone who has helped us achieve this amazing award. There has been so much hard work by all involved. At Benx, we have a long-term commitment and partnership in supporting the Armed Forces community by playing an important role as a forces-friendly employer. We are all immensely proud to receive the Defence Employer Recognition Scheme Gold Award.
We have proudly championed the defence community within our sector, encouraging our partners, suppliers, and peers to follow suit. We have shared best practices and supported Armed Forces charities. Our commitment to the Armed Forces and their families is unwavering for the future.” – Dr. Kevin Ruane, CEO
