For Service Leavers

From the forces to the trading floor.

MG Genone Developments places British military service leavers into careers with leading financial firms, trading desks and investment companies. We work exclusively with ex-forces talent — and exclusively with employers who recognise its value.

Why finance

Why financial firms want ex-forces talent.

Discipline, decision-making under pressure and structured risk management are exactly what trading desks and investment firms look for — but service leavers rarely have a direct route in. MG Genone exists to close that gap, working exclusively with employers who genuinely value military experience.
