NexusProtect is proud to announce that we have been awarded the Silver Award as part of the Defence Employer Recognition Scheme (ERS), a significant honour that reflects our ongoing and deeply rooted commitment to supporting the Armed Forces community.
This recognition is more than just a badge of honour; it’s a testament to the values that drive us as a business. At NexusProtect, we believe in doing more than just signing the Armed Forces Covenant, we work every day to live it.
The ERS Silver Award is presented to organisations that go above and beyond in supporting Reservists, Veterans, Cadets, and military families, embedding Defence-friendly policies into the heart of their operations.
Earning Silver means we have demonstrated:
⁃ Paid leave for Reservists to undertake training and mobilisation
⁃ Active recruitment and retention of veterans, recognising their unique skills and experiences
⁃ Flexible support for the families of those who serve
⁃ Visible leadership support for the Armed Forces Covenant and Defence values
This award highlights not only our internal practices but also our public advocacy for those who have served and continue to serve. Whether it’s through policy, opportunity, or understanding, NexusProtect is proud to stand with the Armed Forces community.
Major General Jamie Gordon, Chief Executive of the Council of Reserve Forces’ and Cadets’ Associations, praised this year’s Silver Award recipients:
“These Silver Award winners are trusted allies of Defence. They don’t just talk about support, they show it, every day, through flexible policies, visible advocacy, and long-term commitment to those who serve. This is about more than good intentions; it’s about practical, sustained support that strengthens our national resilience.”
Nick Holden, Founder & Managing Director of NexusProtect, added,
“We are incredibly proud to receive the ERS Silver Award. Supporting the Armed Forces community is something we believe in wholeheartedly, not only because of the value veterans and reservists bring to the workplace, but because it’s simply the right thing to do. This recognition reinforces our commitment, and we’ll continue to ensure that Defence values are embedded into the very fabric of what we do at Nexus Protect.”
This Silver Award is a milestone, but it is by no means the end of our journey. NexusProtect will continue to evolve, grow, and lead in supporting service personnel and their families across the UK.
To the Armed Forces community: we see you, we value you, and we thank you!
