Civilian Employment

The White Ensign Association can help those from the Royal Navy, Royal Marines and Royal Fleet Auxiliary communities looking for employment help and advice in a variety of ways.  As well as in-depth, personalised, one to one assistance, we also have a number of resources that our clients and others can use, that provide information in some key areas of employment, such as CV writing, preparation for starting a new business, interviewing, what to think about in the early stages of transition or career change planning, and much more.  Please visit the following links for some general information:
