The National Transition Event 2025

A Community That Understands

NTE offers a unique opportunity for the Armed Forces community to connect with companies who value their skills and experiences. This event is not a traditional employment fair; it's a chance for meaningful engagement with businesses that understand the transition from military to civilian life. Attendees can gain first hand insights from ex-military employees, receive tailored advice, and explore a variety of career opportunities. It's an event that recognises the potential of the Armed Forces via the creation of ‘a community of communities’.

Industry Access To the Workforce of the Futue

The Armed Forces community brings a wealth of experience and a unique set of skills that can be highly beneficial to civilian workplaces. Their background instils strong values, transferable experiences, and the ability to adapt, making them an asset to any team and challenge. NTE provides a platform for companies to connect with this community, offering opportunities to both businesses and the Armed Forces attendees which are of mutual benefit, and where the whole of the UK reaps the rewards too.

Troops’ Track Day Is Included

A remarkable event that offers Service Leavers, Veterans, Spouses & Partners, and Reservists an exhilarating experience at the iconic Silverstone GP Circuit. Organized by Mission Motorsport in partnership with Gold Track, this event not only provides high-speed thrills but underlines the fact that this is not like a traditional jobs fair! With the participation of notable drivers like Sir Chris Hoy, Jodi Kidd, and Ben Collins, it's an unforgettable day that combines the thrill of motorsport with a focus on the future of those who have served and their families.

What Previous attendees have to say about the event:


Silverstone has been awarded Three-Star Environmental accreditation by the FIA in recognition of the impressive progress being made on its journey to a net zero future. Since launching its Shift to Zero strategy in 2022 Silverstone has made considerable progress including introducing, in that short time, a significant solar project with the installation of 2,764 panels on the roof of the Wing which generates over 13% of the venue’s energy.

An Iconic, Sustainable Venue

In addition to this, all on site generators, under the control of Silverstone, now run on HVO biofuel, resulting in a 90% reduction of emissions, 50% of its lighting has been switched to LED, with the ambition to have 100% by 2025, and following a switch in energy providers in April 2023, the venue is now fully powered by renewable energy.

In 2023, the circuit also installed 24 solar powered EV charge points so visitors and staff can recharge whilst on site. From a waste point of view, Silverstone has already reached its target to recycle 35% of the total waste collected on site in 2023 and sent the remainder to a Waste for Energy programme facility that helps to power 50,000 homes in Oxfordshire.  Find out more about Silverstone’s Shift to Zero Strategy Here
