Who are Demob Job?

Candidate Testimonials

Lee (ex-Royal Air Force Engineer)

Joanne contacted me from Demob Job regarding a service engineer vacancy in the south of England. I was extremely impressed with her knowledge of my transferable skills and that this is what they were looking for. Her enthusiasm and speed to get me an interview for the position and the constant updates was commendable. I would recommend Demob Job to all personnel who are leaving or have left the service to use them as they provide an excellent service and support through the whole process Radio Engineer, Reading

Ryan (Served in the Royal Navy as a Marine Engineer)

“I cannot thank Joanne enough for all the hard work she has put in to secure me the ideal job! I was cruising along in a position I was unhappy with for a long time and reluctant to apply for new jobs due to a lack of confidence and lack of motivation but Joanne has made the whole experience stress free and easy on my part! An absolute credit to her team and a shining ray of hope for all service leavers that, like me, undersell themselves and accept less than they deserve. I will without a doubt be recommending Demob Job to anyone that will listen to me from here on out! Thank you Joanne and thank you Demob Job!”  Ryan is now employed as a Maintenance Engineer in Essex.

Mike (ex Royal Air Force electrically biased Avionics Engineer)

Joanne at Demob Job is unlike any other recruiter I have been in contact with as I am sure all the recruiters with Demob Job are.  Joanne was friendly, professional, and genuinely interested in putting the correct person in the correct role. Many recruiters merely contact you to fill their numbers, filling you with false hope and never returning the many phone calls you make to them. From the initial phone call I received from Joanne to the last I felt Demob and Joanne wanted to get the best possible outcome for me and not only for them or the company.   I will be recommending Demob job and Joanne to all service leavers I know as I wish someone had recommended them to me months ago.  Thank you Joanne and Demob Job.  Mike is now a Field Electrical Engineer in Tyne & Wear.

From Army Infantry to Stores Assistant: I cannot recommend Demob Job enough

“Right from the beginning Demob Job stood out, this started from reading the online job advert and me contacting them.  Everything about the vacancy was just superb telling you everything you needed to know.  Within an hour of applying Kelly Chandler from Demob Job was in touch.  Kelly puts you at ease and asks all the relevant questions for the employer and also answers all your questions making sure everything is ok.  All through the recruitment process Kelly was fantastic, informing and supporting me at every step. On the morning of the interview Kelly called me to make sure I was ok allowing me to ask any last-minute questions. After the interview yet again Kelly was superb.  Demob and Kelly were just superb from start to finish making the whole experience pleasant during what is normally a nervous and stressful time. Well done Demob Job, I can't recommend you enough, professional and outstanding all the way!” – Former British Army Infantry, now a Stores Assistant.

Andrew (ex Aviation Engineer in the Royal Air Force)

“I contacted Demob Job after seeing a job advert on LinkedIn. Joanne Foster was extremely responsive and arranged a telephone call to discuss the job and check my suitability for the role, an important step in preventing both me and the employer from wasting time. Joanne spent time compiling an accurate and suitable application with me and presented it to the employer on my behalf. Interviews were arranged, taking into consideration my current employment, and regular updates were provided.  This all resulted in a job offer.  A huge thanks to Joanne at Demob job, you’re a huge asset to the service leaver community.”  Andrew is now employed as a  Senior Aviation Engineer in Hertfordshire.

Jake (served in the Royal Navy as a Leading Hand Weapons Engineer)

“I was searching for a new role and was contacted by Kelly Chandler at Demob Job after I applied for a job advertised. She was extremely helpful throughout the whole process and made me feel reassured by something relatively new to me. After I had accepted the role, we kept in touch as she continually checked up to see how things were progressing with the company.  Kelly’s support in securing a new job made the whole situation a lot easier”.  Jake is now an Assistant Project Manager in Hampshire.

Arran (ex REME Electronics Technician)

I was contacted by Emma at Demob Job a couple of months prior to leaving the military. Within 24 hours from first talking, Emma had already arranged two interviews with potential employers within walking distance of my house. One of these interviews proved successful and I was subsequently offered the job in which I am now very happy. Emma went the extra mile to ensure my transition into civilian life was easy and hassle-free, it felt like a very personal service and she has followed up with me a couple of times now, wishing me well and ensuring everything is going ok. All in all, Demob Job and Emma will do what it takes to ensure you find the right job. Field Service Engineer, Lancashire
