Who are Demob Job?

Our future looks bright as we continue to prosper through planned growth.

REME Vehicle Mechanic secures new career as an Engineer Surveyor

"Kelly, you have been a great help from the beginning securing me an interview on such short notice and keeping me up to date with everything right to the very end. You were prepared to listen and understand what I was looking for along with offering good advice which no doubt played a part in me securing this position. Keep doing what you are doing!" – Former Royal Electrical and Mechanical (REME) Vehicle Mechanic, now an Engineer Surveyor.

Their guidance and support have ensured a successful outcome in the job-hunting process. Thank you.” Martin previously served in the Royal Signals and is now employed as an Apprenticeship Coordinator.

Rhys (ex-Royal Navy Weapons Engineer)

“These guys are a cut above the rest when compared to other recruiters - complete understanding throughout the process which isn’t reciprocal with all other recruiters. I received more support than was needed, to which I’m so grateful and ecstatic with the end result. Demob Job are a great team to work with and I would recommend to any service leaver in transition!”.  Rhys is now employed as a Field Service Engineer in the Bristol area.

William (ex Royal Navy Marine Engineer)

Within 5 days of contacting me, Joanne had secured me an interview in my preferred field, which subsequently led to me gaining my first job outside of the Royal Navy.  Joanne could not have been more helpful throughout the whole process, keeping in regular contact the whole time and always being on hand to answer any questions that I had.  I would not hesitate to recommend Joanne to any service leaver in the future.  William is now employed as an Operations Engineer in Somerset.

Alex (ex Royal Navy – Leading Air Engineering Technician)

Emma Saxton was great in finding me work after I had put my notice in with the Royal Navy.  After an uncertain time, I was beginning to worry about finding civilian employment, but this changed when I contacted Demob Job.  After speaking with Emma, I felt more confident and positive about my job search.  Emma found me a job with a leading multinational industrial engineering company with terms and conditions which far surpassed any expectation I had with leaving the Armed Forces, I was thrilled.  I would encourage anybody leaving their military career to contact Demob Job.  Alex is now a Field Service Engineer in Cumbria.

From REME Aircraft Engineer to Engineer Surveyor: Expert Support Every Step of the Way

"Kelly reached out to me about a role she was working on helping me through the application process. She talked me through the kind of technical questions I could expect in the interview, which made a big difference going in prepared. She also chased things up with the company keeping me posted on where things stood, so I always knew what was happening rather than being left guessing. From first contact to actually starting the job was about 6 weeks, which felt like a genuinely quick and straightforward process. Would highly recommend."  Zav previously served in the Royal Electrical and Mechanical Engineers (REME) as an Aircraft Engineer, now employed as an Engineer Surveyor.

James (Served in the Royal Air Force as a Mechanical Aircraft Engineer)

“Emma has been fantastic from day one when I applied for a job through Demob Job. She has a great understanding of how the transition from the military to civilian life works so knows exactly how to help you.  Emma kept in touch regularly providing me with updates on the status of my job application, and even if there was no update she would be in contact just to offer me reassurance that I had not been forgotten about! She was able to provide helpful tips and really does put 110% effort into helping you.  Overall, a friendly and helpful professional who is very knowledgeable in helping ex-military jobseekers gain employment. I will be highly recommending Emma and the Demob Job team to others.”  Sam is now employed as a Field Service Engineer working within the fuel sector.
