British Army Reserves
ABOUT US
203 (Loughborough) Transport Squadron is an Army Reserve unit of the Royal Logistic Corps (RLC). Our role is to provide heavy lift capability in support of the Regular Army in peace or in times of conflict.
​
We transport combat supplies whenever and wherever they are required. Our soldiers are taught to drive a wide range of vehicles on roads, on cross country terrain, and in all weather conditions.
​
Here at 203 Squadron, we will give you the opportunity to do something different; get paid to train in your spare time, earn an annual tax-free bounty, take part in adventure training and sporting activities, and learn transferable skills that employers are looking for.
We are currently recruiting Heavy Goods drivers, Chefs, Medics, Clerks, and Officers so if you want to try something new and develop yourself as an individual then come along to one of our Squadron open evenings every Tuesday at 1930 (7.30pm) to learn more about what opportunities are available to you.
