MEMBER NEWS: RMI reinforces commitment to supporting Armed Forces community

RMI, a multimillion-dollar global company providing clients with medical, HSE, security and risk management staffing and services across the globe, has formalised its commitment to support the Armed Forces community by signing the Armed Forces Covenant (AFC).

An employer of former service personnel across its global teams, RMI has an extensive history of supporting service personnel, particularly through its employment of veterans and reservists, recognising the significant value of military skills and qualifications in its recruitment.

Alex Janzen, Chief Operating Officer at RMI said: “We are proud to be an Armed Forces friendly organisation. The challenges that service men and women face when their career in the military comes to an end can be complex, but their skills and experiences are invaluable and enduring. RMI has always been a company that understands the unique perspectives of those with military backgrounds, and signing the Armed Forces Covenant is an official recognition of that.”

The Armed Forces Covenant is a Ministry of Defence initiative that requires businesses, local authorities and charities to pledge their acknowledgement that those who are current and former service personnel should not face disadvantage and that, in some circumstances, special provision may be justified, especially for those who have given the most, such as the injured or bereaved.

RMI specialises in providing medical, security and intelligence support in some of the most remote locations across the planet. With the work requiring a unique skill set that is often found within ex-service personnel, the signing of the covenant marks a significant moment in the support of existing employees as well as any former service people looking to join.

AREG has played an important role in the growth of Scotland’s renewable energy sector, engaging the supply chain and developing the European Offshore Wind Deployment Centre. However, we are only at the very beginning of the transition that AREG was established to both lead and support so there are still opportunities for companies to get into the constantly evolving renewables supply chain. We look forward to continuing our work together as renewables builds on its place as Scotland’s main source of power, and as we seek to deliver real change in the crucial areas of heat and transport.

Aberdeen & Grampian Chamber of Commerce has worked closely with AREG since its formation. The recent progress in the developments of offshore wind projects by Equinor and Vattenfall are as a result of the work of the group over many years. The north-east is known as the oil and gas capital of Europe. At the Chamber, we believe the region must evolve its position to being recognised as the energy capital. Whilst hydrocarbons will continue to be essential in driving our economy for years to come, the generation of renewable resources will play an increasingly important role in providing cost-effective power, innovative development and economic growth.

The enthusiasm and dedication of the early group that would become AREG was fundamental in us choosing to launch All-Energy in Aberdeen. The first tiny show was held in 2001, and AREG’s Chairman at the time, Jeremy Cresswell, played such an active role that I often describe him in terms such as All-Energy’s ‘midwife’. All-Energy is now the UK’s largest renewable and low carbon energy exhibition and conference in terms of number of attendees, space booked, and number of exhibiting companies. As AREG became firmly established, their presence and support for the event grew spectacularly over the years. We thank them most sincerely for their invaluable input.

Vattenfall has forged a strong working relationship with AREG through the development of the European Offshore Wind Deployment Centre. AREG has worked tirelessly on behalf of the North East and it can take enormous credit for the growth of sustainable energy in the region and the path it has cleared for the region to capture further investment.

Aberdeen City and Shire is emerging as a key location for renewables by successfully transferring its world-class oil and gas expertise into the sector and AREG has done much to advance this through a broad range of initiatives. It has acted as a catalyst in driving further investment in the local economy by engaging with companies, Government, public bodies and existing projects and we have been pleased to support their efforts. Scottish Enterprise will continue to engage with AREG as we increase Scotland’s use of renewable energy.
