STANLEY Security has been recognized by CivilianJobs.com, connecting America’s military personnel with civilian careers, as a Most Valuable Employer (MVE) for Military®. The annual MVE recognition serves to help military-experienced job seekers and veterans identify the top employers to target for civilian careers.

STANLEY Security began partnering with Bradley-Morris, Inc., the largest military recruiting firm in the U.S., in 2015. Armed with expansive resources, Bradley-Morris works closely with STANLEY to hire military personnel for a variety of roles within Stanley Black & Decker including management, engineering, sales, operations, technician and maintenance positions. In 2015, a total of 394 veterans were hired by STANLEY Security.

“Service members are highly valuable for their exceptional leadership qualities, diverse skillsets and dedication to teamwork – all pillars of our corporate culture at STANLEY Security,” said Tony Buffum, VP Human Resources, STANLEY Security. “We are honored to be a recipient of the Most Valuable Employer for Military and to be giving back to the service men and women who have already given so much as citizens of this country.”

“I congratulate the employers recognized as MVEs and further thank all of them for their commitment to our country’s veterans and military personnel,” said Tim Best, CEO, Bradley-Morris, Inc., parent company of CivilianJobs.com. “This year’s list of Most Valuable Employers for Military winners is a testament to the variety of companies and industries that make it an annual goal to hire transitioning military and veterans. These companies truly embrace and value the level of talent that is ingrained in each military-experienced job seeker.”

The 2016 Most Valuable Employers (MVE) for Military was open to all U.S.-based companies. The winners were selected based on surveys in which employers outlined their recruiting, training and retention plans that best serve military service members and veterans. In addition to being recognized in the May issue of Military Transition News, CivilianJobs.com’s worldwide military base newspaper, winning employers will also be displayed on the CivilianJobs.com website.
