Real Support for the Journey Beyond the Military

Transitioning out of military life isn’t just a career move — it’s a change in identity, lifestyle and direction. Mission Employable UK exists to make that journey easier.

Hosted by Deborah Collier, apodcast brings honest conversations, lived experience, career expertise and employer perspectives directly to our Armed Forces community.

Every episode is shaped around the real questions people ask when stepping into civilian employment:

Which qualifications matter?
How do I translate my military skills for civilian CVs and interviews?
What makes an employer “forces-friendly?”
Where can spouses and children access meaningful career support?

Whether you are leaving, have already left, or are supporting a member of the Armed Forces, this podcast is here to guide you.
