Darren proudly served in the British Army for 12 years and now has a key role in keeping the North West’s underground gas network operating safely, day and night, 365 days a year.
The 38-year-old, from Manchester, is something of a ‘recruiting sergeant’ for gas network Cadent, having helped three of his former combat comrades transition from military life to a career at a company that looks after more than 21,000 miles of gas pipes in North West England.
Darren yesterday attended the official launch of the Cadent Military Group, a new internal network of colleagues who formerly served in the armed forces, and/or serve now as reservists.
Cadent is a signatory of the Armed Forces Covenant and is keen to support service leavers to enter the business. Martin Rimmer, Chief People Officer, said this helps Cadent “grow a diverse and inclusive organisation, allowing us to be truly representative of the communities we serve.”
Darren, who served in The 22nd Cheshire Regiment until 2009 and joined Cadent six years later after spells working as a bodyguard and in private security, is very keen to support this.
“I’m a team leader now here at Cadent – a repair engineer. We work day and night to make sure the pipes work safely. It’s a job that suits someone like me, ex-military – lots of logistics involved, keeping on top of kit and equipment, following your training, and keeping calm under pressure.
