Amentum is a leading global partner in technical and engineering services, supporting critical programs across defense, security, intelligence, energy, and the environment. With over 55,000 employees in 28 countries, we draw from a rich heritage of over a century, built on a foundation of innovation, integrity, and operational excellence.

Armed Forces at Amentum

Our unwavering commitment to safety, ethics, and collaboration drives mission success. In the UK and internationally, we provide essential support for critical nuclear services, but don’t be deterred by the term ‘nuclear’—specialist qualifications aren’t required to join our team. You’ll gain the necessary expertise through hands-on experience, backed by a supportive and inclusive work environment.

We deeply value military culture and are proud of our long-standing relationship with the military in the United States. As we expand our presence in the UK, we welcome veterans into our ranks. Globally, we employ approximately 10,000 veterans across a wide range of professions, disciplines, and markets, where their experience and dedication contribute to our collective success.

Armed Forces Covenant

In 2022 Amentum UK signed the Armed Forces Covenant, demonstrating its ongoing commitment to the covenant’s principles. In June 2023 Amentum was proud to announce that the organisation had achieved the Employer Recognition Scheme Bronze Certificate.

Globally nearly a third of Amentum’s workforce is made up of Veterans who have served in the Armed Forces. We know that the teamwork, discipline and leadership skills developed through military service benefit both our company and our customers, which is why Amentum is rated as #1 Military Friendly Company in the US.

Neil Thumwood, Amentum’s Defence Programme Director:

“I’ve spent my career in the defence industry and it’s hugely important to me to see Amentum pledging its unwavering support to the defence and armed forces community.

As Amentum continues to grow and diversify it is significant that the active promotion of employing reservists, and armed forces veterans is viewed as an integral part of the future success of the business.

This is just the beginning, the team are working hard to ensure that Amentum is a market leader in the UK as it is in the US, providing world-beating employment to our service personnel”.
