Our commitment to the Armed Forces Covenant
HMRC is a signatory to the Covenant and a Defence Employer Recognition Scheme Silver Award holder. We are fully committed to the covenant principles and participate in the Covenant Reference Group.
In HMRC we have a programme entitled Partnering with Defence, which incorporates support to reservists, cadet force adult volunteers and veterans/service leavers. The department has dedicated resources in support of Defence including a Reserves Champion, Veterans Champion and Armed Forces Covenant Advocate. The latter role focuses on ensuring HMRC is a forces friendly employer and service provider also representing the interests of spouses of service personnel who work for the department.
HMRC actively encourages job applications from the Armed Forces Community. Selected external vacancies including places on the HMRC RISE internship for eligible service leavers are advertised on the Career Transition Partnership job portal and via resettlement services. The department promotes opportunities in our regional centres across the UK to dependents via this website and also via the Civil Service Jobs portal.
