Andrew Green
LEAD AUDITOR
Transitioning from the
Royal Air Force
" Amongst a number of job offers,
Alcumus drew my attention. It is
signed up to the Armed Forces
Covenant, which made me feel that
there would be an understanding
of how intense the journey into
civilian employment can be and
an awareness of my transferrable
skills. I was offered a job as an
Information Security Lead Auditor.
I was grateful that there was a
training period that allowed me
to shadow the more experienced
members of the team and I was
also given a mentor who helped
me every step of the way. "
" Our commitment is to provide great
opportunities so people can stay with us
and grow their career over time. "
DEI at the heart of recruitment
Alcumus prioritises initiatives that
leverage diverse experiences,
perspectives and backgrounds as we
believe this diversity drives our success.
Partnering with local colleges and
universities across the UK is also a key
priority, as we place great importance
on giving back to our communities. To
further this goal, we offer our employees
a " giving day " to use for good causes
- resulting in successful employability
workshops taking place in schools.

Returning from maternity leave
to start a new role
" I took maternity leave in 2022
and coming back was a daunting
concept. Having had time to
reflect while I was away, I had
also decided that I would love a
career change and Alcumus was
amazing in helping me to make
this happen! I made the move
from human resources into the
commercial strategy area and the
support I received was exceptional.
To have that belief in me to step
into a completely new area on my
return is a testament to how great
Alcumus is at supporting a diverse
variety of needs. "

leadership team of seven comprises four
