    Chauffeur, residential security

    Although the position will of been filled, I am back on the job hunt for a role of this nature. I have lots of experience since leaving the military and a competent individual. If possible (and I meet your criteria), would it be feasible to be on standby/cover of some kind? Regards, Karl.

    Advice on FPOS and other courses

    That's pretty much the same as I've heard already but with a little more evidence to support it, I'd have booked the course already if I could use my new set of ELC, but just like claiming last year's they don't make it easy for you, I could afford to pay but I don't want to rush in like I did...
