Doors open 1030 - 1530 hours, and our events are open to all Service personnel, past, present and future, (which obviously includes the Merchant Navy), their families and the Reserve Forces.

The event will be host to high profile companies such as BAE Systems, National Grid, Harrods, Scottish & Southern Electric, EDF, G4S, Punch Taverns, Hilton Worldwide, GeoPost, to name just a few

These events are a great platform to get noticed by potential employers with many job opportunities available on the day.

Hope to see you there

Dominic we wish you luck in trying to include the MN, but can you make sure that the prospective employers are aware that the Merchant Navy is indeed a service and vital to this country's existence, as I and others have found in the past we MN are not recognised as serving our country in peace and war and refused entry to the British Legion and other organisations; and sad to say most people, including prospective employers have no idea what the MN is. Some even think that our Red Ensign is the Communist Party flag because it is mostly red.

Regards

Ivan,

Thank you for posting your comment, I would like to reassure you every employer that I speak to are aware our events are very much open to serving and former Merchant Navy personnel, plus our other web based services, including the BFRS Virtual Career Fair, which can be found here... http://bfrs.omnivilexhibitions.com/entrance.aspx

Whenever I am advising people of whom we are and what we offer, I always include the MN as people we want to reach, due to the service they give our country. I will keep pushing the word out there and look forward to meeting some of you at our future events......

Best regards, Dominic
