Who are Demob Job?

Demob Job was established in 2005 by our Managing Director Adrian Cheesman after he completed a successful full career in The Royal Corps of Signals.

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

Candidate Testimonials

Daniel (ex Royal Navy – Avionics/Electrical Engineering Supervisor)

After 6 years in the Royal Navy I wanted more stability for my home life.  Joanne has been a key part of securing my next career and has been very proactive during every stage of job searching. She found my profile online and very quickly lined up several interviews that ticked my boxes.  Even though I was searching for work 200 miles away from where I was based, Joanne managed to set up interviews that fitted in with my schedule.  I cannot thank her and Demob Job enough for their professionalism and constant communication during my career change. 10/10!  Now an Installation and Maintenance Technician in Leicestershire

Matthew (ex REME Avionics Technician)

I applied for a Field Service Technician Role through Demob and was promptly contacted by Joanne who after ascertaining my suitability for the role arranged for me to attend an interview. I was successful and offered the job the same day which I accepted. Throughout the entire process, Joanne was always on hand to help me prepare for the interview, keeping me informed and ensuring everything ran smoothly up to my first day of work. Overall all I could not recommend Demobjob enough. Field Service Technician, Belfast

Andrew (ex Royal Air Force – Mechanical Aircraft Technician)

Thanks for all the help and support I’ve received from Joanne at Demob Job with this transition to a new career of Field Service Technician. You’ve provided great knowledge about the company, role and some very useful tips for both interview stages pointing out transferable skills that can be taken from a military background. Thanks again I wouldn’t have been successful without your help.  Now a Mechanical Field Service Technician covering Liverpool and Manchester

John (Previously served in the Royal Navy as an Engineer)

“Joanne was very helpful in finding me employment on upon transitioning from a 15-year career in the Royal Navy.  Although at the time there were limited employers advertising roles that matched my skillset, Joanne managed to find hidden roles with local companies with whom she and Demob Job have close relationships with.  Her hard work, perseverance and contacts within industry managed to secure me my ideal role.  I'd also like to add that her support and mentoring during the process, helped enable my success in securing employment, during what can be a stressful process. I would definitely recommend Joanne and Demob Job to any service leaver”.  John is now employed as a Project Engineer in the North East.

Luke (ex-Royal Signals Communications Systems Engineer)

Joanne approached me upon finding my CV online, she was very friendly and extremely enthusiastic about the role she matched to me. Joanne had a very good understanding of my skills interpenetrated from my CV and understood my background well. Throughout the whole process Joanne kept me informed of any news very promptly and I believe she liaised with the company to the highest standard. I would recommend Joanne and DEMOB JOB to any of my colleagues that may leave the forces in the future. Communications Systems Engineering Team Leader, Manchester

Another Avionics Engineer placed into commercial employment by Demob Job

"Demob Job has been outstanding in helping me secure my new position. Special thanks to Kelly, whose world-class communication ensured I was updated every step of the way. I'm incredibly grateful for all the support I've received from Demob Job and wish the team all the best for the future." – Rob, a former Royal Air Force Avionics Engineer, now working as a Maintenance Engineer.

Chris (Royal Navy Weapons Engineer)

“After uploading my CV to most of the general websites, within days, I was fortunate to receive a phone call from Joanne Foster at Demob Job informing me that she had found my CV online and wondered if I was in fact interested in a future role that she had matched my transferable skills against. From the start, Joanne was open and forthcoming with all the relevant information pertaining to the job role and the background on the company. Sure enough, I was put forward for this particular role and within days had secured a first stage interview. Fortunate to be successful and be welcomed back to a second stage interview by the company, Joanne was in close contact with the company and made arrangements for myself to attend and further discussed with me the potential next stages. This was all stress free, relaxed and handled by the professionalism of Joanne at every stage and waypoint. I am sure that if not for Joanne and Demob Job, that my CV may have fell by the side of the road and not been so successful. This came at a time when my previous role was contractually coming to an end and was flawless in transition. Highly professional, informative, and friendly throughout the process and would highly recommend Joanne and the team at Demob Job to anyone who is looking to progress their own career.” Chris is now employed as an Auditor in Glasgow.
