ALTEN Project Director named as finalist at the British Forces in Business Awards

Now in its ninth year, the British Forces in Business Awards is the world’s largest celebration of military veterans in the commercial sector. The awards program highlights the exceptional achievements of ex-service personnel and recognises the businesses that support them, shining a spotlight on individuals who have successfully transitioned their skills from military to civilian careers.

Recognising Excellence and Leadership

Darren’s shortlisting in the Outstanding Achiever of the Year category is a significant testament to his dedication, leadership, and the exceptional value he brings to the ALTEN team. The transition from the Armed Forces to the corporate world requires adaptability and resilience, qualities that Darren exemplifies daily.

At ALTEN, we are deeply committed to fostering a forces-friendly environment that empowers veterans and reservists. We recognise that the mission-driven values, strategic thinking, and technical expertise developed during military service are invaluable assets to our organization and our clients.

The winners will be revealed at the annual awards gala, taking place on Thursday, 25 June 2026, at Grosvenor House on Park Lane, London. The event is expected to gather over 1,200 leaders from both the business and military communities to celebrate inspiring stories of synergy and success.

We extend our warmest congratulations to Darren on this well-deserved recognition, and we wish him the very best of luck at the ceremony. We also congratulate all the fellow finalists who have been shortlisted this year.
