Staff clerk
A staff clerk is a professional specialist
clerk in the British Army who is a member of an administrative corps, as opposed to a unit clerk, who is a member of the corps or regiment in which he or she works and is trained first and foremost in the duties of that unit (as an infantryman
, for instance).
Staff clerks predominantly work in headquarters units alongside
Boer War.[1] In the McLeod Reorganisation of Army Logistics, staff clerks were transferred to the Royal Army Ordnance Corps
in 1965.
In 1992 they again transferred, to the Staff and Personnel Support Branch of the Adjutant General's Corps and were merged with unit clerks.
