Harun (ex Royal Signals – Communications Systems Engineer)
I applied for a technical role in Northern Ireland which closely matched my profile and I received a prompt call from Joanne at Demob Job to discuss my current situation and to organise an interview with a potential employer. She was so understanding of the daunting prospect of leaving the military and from the get-go, she was reassuring me that my skills and experience are attractive in the commercial sector. Joanne kept me in the loop and made sure I was never left wondering where I was in the application process. I don’t think I could have found such a good role that pays well and where I am able to utilise my skills from the military without her help. I fully recommend Joanne Foster and Demob Job to anyone wanting to resettle from their military in the future. Now employed as a Field Support Technician in Northern Ireland
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.

Andy (Royal Air Force – Avionics Engineer)
I applied for a position that I found on the Career Transition Partnership (CTP) website which sounded like it would suit me. A short time later I was contacted by Joanne from Demob Job with some more details about the role. I said that I was interested in the position and that I would like to be put forward for it. Having read through my CV, Joanne suggested a few tweaks to better suit the position which I decided would be a good idea. After only a few days I had an interview lined up and was offered the position starting a month later. Before my first day I was contacted weekly by Joanne to ensure everything was going well and if I needed any advice with my transition from military to civilian life. Overall, the service was first class and thanks to Joanne and the Demob Job team I have now started my first job as a ‘civvy’.
Nathan (ex-Royal Navy Marine Engineer)
“After having served 8 years in the Royal Navy as a Marine Engineer, on starting my transition to civvy street I was contacted by Demob Job to help me find my new career. Kelly was my point of contact throughout, and she was brilliant from start to finish. She noted all my previous skills and experience and used them to match jobs that were in my preferred field. She filtered jobs for me that were within my preferred commutable area, working routines, and the salary range I was looking for. I was matched with a job that best suited everything that I was looking for. Kelly kept me well-informed throughout the selection and interview process. She even phoned me the Friday before I was due to start my new job to wish me good luck. I would not hesitate to recommend Demob Job to any member of the Armed Forces looking to take their next step”. Nathan is now employed as an Electrical Maintenance Engineer in Manchester.
