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.

His vision was to build an ethical and professional recruitment business which would champion the employability of personnel who have previously served in our Armed Forces; Royal Navy, British Army and Royal Air Force.

Since those early days we have continued to grow and now have a focused team of consultants delivering permanent recruitment services to clients all over the UK and overseas.

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

Candidate Testimonials

Chris (ex Royal Air Force – Radar Technician)

Leaving the military is a daunting thought for everyone.  But to leave when a pandemic is in full swing really made me rethink my options.  However, after speaking with Adrian at Demob Job, my mind was at ease. We spoke about what I was looking for with regards to my future.  After only days he found what I can only describe, as a dream job for me. From then on the process was swift. I never felt alone and Adrian was there every step of the way.  A few months ago I was petrified about how I would pay to keep a roof over my head.  Now I’m comfortably in a job I enjoy.  I can’t thank Adrian and Demob Job enough for getting me on the right path to a fulfilling career.  Now a Maintenance Engineer in London

Chris (ex Royal Signals – Communications Systems Operator)

After receiving a Demob Job Vacancy Alert that ticked all my boxes, I contacted Adrian for further details.  One-week later I was sat in front of his client and was duly successful in being offered the role.  Adrian immediately made me feel at ease, ensuring that the process was comfortable, yet structured, with all necessary support and advice along the way.  Three weeks from my initial contact with Adrian I start my new role and I'm over the moon!  I cannot recommend Adrian and his team highly enough, many thanks indeed!  Now a Field Based Training Executive in Gloucestershire

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’.

Owen (ex Royal Navy electrically biased Weapons Engineer)

A great process. From the first call I received where the opportunity was introduced to the call on the Friday before I started the job Joanne was helpful, professional, and always at the end of the phone if I had any inquiries. Many thanks to Joanne Foster and Demob Job for the opportunity, I am enjoying my new employment.  Owen is now a Service Engineer in Gloucester.
