The Royal Marines Commandos, Royal Naval Reserve and Royal Marines Reserves are recruiting – see links below.
Royal Naval Reserve
As a member of the Royal Naval Reserves, you’ll support the Royal Navy in its peacetime, military and humanitarian operations, which involves visiting new places and experiencing things you never would in your day-to-day life. There can come a time when you need a new challenge or just a change from your usual routine.
If you want a busy and fulfilling life full of personal challenges and fantastic financial benefits, becoming a Reservist in the Royal Navy is perfect. There are specific Nationality and Qualification requirements for certain areas of reserve employment, which should be discussed with our careers advisors. You must be less than 40 years old.

Royal Marines Reserve
As a Royal Marines Reservist, you’ll be one of about 600 people who combine their civilian day jobs with serving part-time as fully-trained Commandos. Most have no previous military experience. As a Reservist, you’ll complete exactly the same rigorous commando course as the regular Royal Marines. The proof is that roughly 10% of the Royal Marines Reserve are currently serving on long-term attachments in regular Royal Marine units.
British, Irish and Commonwealth citizens may join the RMR. Nationality restrictions may apply for certain specializations. Only men can serve in the RMR. You need to be between 16 and 32 years old, though in exceptional circumstances enlistment after the age of 32 may be authorised, and age limits do not apply to applicants with former Regular or Reserve service.
