Description

Our commitment to the Armed Forces Covenant

Sport Aberdeen recognises the valuable contribution the Reserve Forces makes to the UK Armed Forces, their communities and their place of work and is committed to supporting this, by signing the Armed Forces Covenant.  As an employer of choice, Sport Aberdeen is an armed forces friendly organisation with a Reserve Forces Policy and Procedure.

We actively welcome applications from serving or ex Armed Forces personnel.  We are proud to promote this on our company website. 

Support is also offered to any Sport Aberdeen employees who choose to become members of the reserve forces or CFAV.
