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

Aaron (ex British Army Electronics Technician)

Joanne was there for me during the most difficult and concerning time of my career, the period in which I was leaving the military after 10 years not having any civilian contacts or experience. She made me feel calm and confident in securing a new career path even during the pandemic. I would highly recommend any ex-military or jobseeker to have Joanne caring for their needs. She was professional and kind during the whole process and considered all my needs throughout. Amazing support. Aaron is now an Engineering Technician in Lancashire.

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.

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.

Liam (Ex Royal Air Force Mechanical Engineer)

“I cannot praise enough the help and support Kelly provided me from Demob Job recruitment agency, she has been absolutely brilliant during my job search and interview process. Utmost professional finding out what my strengths and previous engineering experience was to match me with similar commercial job positions for when I leave my military career. Thank you for motivating and encouraging me while making this process so seamless”.  Liam has now secured a new job within a manufacturing environment as a Maintenance Engineer in South Yorkshire.

Julian (ex British Army – Household Cavalry Regiment)

After applying for a position through the Demob Job website I was contacted by Emma who was very helpful in helping me adjust my CV to reflect the vacancy.  Emma organised everything, including the interview which I attended and was offered the job.  I would like to personally thank the team at Demob Job and particularly Emma for her friendly professionalism and assistance.  Now an Estates Manager in West London

Laurence (served in the Royal Navy as a Marine Engineer)

"After leaving the Royal Navy I was promptly contacted by Joanne Foster at Demob Job; Joanne almost immediately found several roles that matched my skill set as well as what I was looking for.  On my way back from one interview she put me forward for the job I have now gladly accepted. Perfect for both location and opportunity to allow me to utilise my skills.  Constantly trying to find the best job for me from the start as well as keeping me updated at every step, I would highly recommend Demob Job to any service leaver!”.  Laurence is now employed as an Engineering Technician in Manchester.
