This is an exciting new post and an opportunity for a trustworthy, well-motivated self-starter to join a busy, tight-knit team and help make a difference to serving and former Royal Marines and their families who find themselves in need.
You will be responsible for receiving initial welfare calls, processing financial grant request for the RM Benevolent Fund, assisting with veteran casework, entering information into the welfare section of the RMA website, maintaining databases, liaising between other veteran support agencies and being responsible for the administration of RM Veteran Support training courses.
