Today is Armed Forces Day, and we are proudly celebrating the immense contribution of our military community. 🇬🇧

As an active signatory of the Armed Forces Covenant, Millbank is dedicated to supporting service leavers, veterans, and military families into rewarding civilian careers.

Personnel from the Armed Forces bring an exceptional wealth of transferable skills to the technical engineering sector.

Their precision under pressure, advanced technical aptitude, and systems-led problem solving are exactly what complex industries need.

Whether your background is in mechanical engineering, communications, or logistically demanding operations, your expertise maps directly onto high-impact UK developments.

We partner with leading UK employers across highly regulated environments, including defence, nuclear, and clean energy, to bridge the gap between military talent and critical vacancies.

Project MADE has set out a major ambition for the West Midlands advanced manufacturing sector.

50,000 jobs by 2035.
£44bn in annual output.
A stronger, more connected manufacturing supercluster.

The opportunity is significant, but delivery will depend on people as much as investment.

CNC, welding, fabrication, controls, automation, quality, electronics and technical office skills are all likely to play a major role as the region scales.

We’ve looked at what the plan means for employers, candidates and the wider skills market.

A useful reminder that supporting others starts with looking after yourself too.
