This is the first time the RAF has placed in the Top 75 and recognises the work undertaken to attract and improve socio-economic diversity within our organisation.
The Top 75 Employers Index is compiled by the Social Mobility Foundation, recognised as the leading authority on employer best practice and assesses the steps being taken by organisations to ensure openness to talent from all social backgrounds.
We are extremely proud to be named as a Top 75 employer for Social Mobility. This achievement recognises the work we have undertaken to ensure the Royal Air Force is an inclusive employer and no matter your background or where you come from the Royal Air Force will harness that talent and offer an exciting, challenging and rewarding career.
Air-Vice Marshal Maddison
RAF’s Social Mobility Champion
Well done to all the organisations which submitted this year – especially the 31 firms who have participated six years in a row. In the context of recovery from the pandemic, economic uncertainty and ongoing political upheaval, these employers are rightly continuing to prioritise social mobility as an investment in the future.
Sarah Atkinson
CEO of the Social Mobility Foundation
