The Ministry of Defence has named Vistech Services as a Gold Award winner in its Defence Employer Recognition Scheme for 2022.

The scheme recognises UK employers that demonstrate a commitment to defence by proactively supporting the armed forces community and inspiring others to do the same. To achieve Gold Award status, a company must uphold recruitment policies that are positive to people in and leaving the armed forces, creating opportunities for service personnel such as cadet instructors, veterans (including wounded, injured and sick), and military spouses and partners. It must enable reservists to fulfil their annual training and mobilisation commitments and support their reintegration once back at work.

Chris Taylor, Managing Director, said: “This award should serve as testament to the valuable contribution military personnel make to companies like ours. These are people with the drive to go above and beyond in the name of public service and I would encourage any organisation to draw upon the frontline skills and insight they bring. We are honoured to receive this award from the MOD in recognition of the commitments we have made to the armed forces community.”
