Military Division
Discovering Veteran talent to assist with a career post Military
Over 2 million veterans in the UK with between 12,000 – 15,000 service leavers entering the UK Job market annually. We are fully aware of the obstacles and struggles service leavers endure looking for suitable civilian employment and we act as signposts between excellent candidates, and forces friendly organisations looking to add more veterans to their workforce.
National Insurance relief is available to employers of service leavers within their first 12-months of civilian employment. This scheme has been introduced to great effect and allows companies to hire not only hard-working, disciplined, dedicated employees, but also save money in the process. The rate of National Insurance is currently set at 13.8% of the salary, which is a substantial saving, and can almost negate the agency fee when hiring veterans through the Military Desk at Hirecracker.
Thomas Fulton, a nine-year British Army veteran, now leads the Military Division at Hirecracker. With a focus on Forces-Friendly clients across the UK, discover how we can assist with your recruitment needs!

Positive initial experience with Tom and Josh with some successful applicants. Both always happy to help and communication is great! Hiring ex-forces candidates into your organisation is very positive, their work ethic is great! and most are extremely adaptable with an urge to progress and better themselves. Looking forward to more success for 2024 – thanks!
