Careers

“When my wife was diagnosed with breast cancer last year C3IA immediately provided support and took steps to enable me to focus on supporting my wife through this difficult time. This support continued throughout the 10 months that my wife was receiving treatment and shows that C3IA really look after the welfare of their employees and family.”

“After completing a three-month work experience placement with C3IA, I joined the company full-time as a Junior Security Consultant upon graduating from university. C3IA has been the perfect environment for me to enter the profession and capitalise on my degree. As a junior member at C3IA, I have the exciting opportunity to work with a diverse range of clients, which has rapidly expanded my skills and allowed me to earn essential certifications. The incredible support from my experienced colleagues, who are always eager to share their wisdom and experience, makes every project a collaborative and rewarding experience.”

“Upon leaving the Armed Forces I have started my new career as a Consultant, specialising within Defence as a Project, Programme & Portfolio Management (P3M) with a technical background gained through my military service. I had worked as an employee with several companies before joining C3IA Solutions Ltd in January 2022 as a Principal Consultant. One of the main reasons for me joining the company was due to the positive feedback from clients, associates and employees when the companies name was raised.

My choice in joining the company has been vindicated, the ethos, values and work ethic has made my transition into role as comfortable as it could be – being part of the company is like putting on your smoking jacket and slippers, a very comfortable and welcoming experience.

I have successfully and happily completed several contracts with a range of clients in Defence Digital and Army Headquarters which have all been interesting and varied, and throughout each contract I have felt supported by the company even whilst in individual roles. The company has additionally supported me in my own personal growth and development which cumulated in me being the first within the company and one of the first thousand people in the UK in gaining the Chartered Management Consultant (ChMC) certification.”

“I joined C3IA Solutions 2 years ago as a Principal Consultant because I am very aware of their values and ethos which meets my own.
As a largely ex-military cohort, our strength comes from our shared experience, allowing us to understand each other and work well together.

I have been predominantly working in the UK Defence domain but am also enjoying the opportunities to work with younger, non-ex-military staff to offer mentoring relationships.
On joining, C3IA Solutions offered me a 3 day working week which aligns with my Reservist work at Northwood, where I commit up to 120 days a year supporting the Integrated Warfare Centre (IWC).
This also includes overseas work where, as a Gold Defence Employment Recognition Scheme (ERS) Member, C3IA Solutions offer me a further 2 weeks paid leave to perform Reservist activities.”
