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.

“Emma has been fantastic from day one when I applied for a job through Demob Job. She has a great understanding of how the transition from the military to civilian life works so knows exactly how to help you.  Emma kept in touch regularly providing me with updates on the status of my job application, and even if there was no update she would be in contact just to offer me reassurance that I had not been forgotten about! She was able to provide helpful tips and really does put 110% effort into helping you.  Overall, a friendly and helpful professional who is very knowledgeable in helping ex-military jobseekers gain employment. I will be highly recommending Emma and the Demob Job team to others.”  Sam is now employed as a Field Service Engineer working within the fuel sector.
