"Absolutely fantastic service from Demob Job, and in particular Joanne, who handled my application. The service was very professional and concise.

Joanne got a new interview organised on the same day, and even after getting accepted for the job, Joanne has stayed in touch to make sure my start goes smoothly. I would thoroughly recommend Demob Job for all ex-forces personnel looking for a new job." Marc served for over 19 years in the Royal Navy as a Marine Engineer and Weapons Engineer.

A big ‘thank you’ to the Demob Job team, my first phone call with Emma gave me a positive feeling that they would find something for me.

Would highly recommend to any ex-military to register!'. Curtis is now employed as an Electrical Engineer in Tyne & Wear.
Chris (ex Royal Electrical and Mechanical Engineers)
Emma contacted me after I applied for a Field Service Engineer position. Within days Emma came back to me, spoke to me about the vacancy and then helped me tweak my CV specifically for the role. Emma helped me with every step of the process happy to use several methods of contact as I was difficult to reach due to my work commitments. She was patient and understanding. Thanks to Emma, within 5 weeks I had started a new job. In addition, my new boss has since alluded that this was his first-time using Demob Job and he was so pleased how it had worked out. Both my new boss and I would highly recommend Demob Job to anybody who is looking for a new career after their military career. Double thumbs-up for Demob Job!

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
Mitchel (ex Royal Navy Aeronautical Engineering Technician)
Jack and I connected on linked in a little over a month ago and ever since he has been a brilliant asset to finding my next career. He found numerous job roles that fitted my criteria, coached me through the roles and interview techniques, and ultimately assisted in me getting my new position. Jack kept me well updated through the whole process and I really felt he had my best interests. I could not recommend Jack enough to anyone who is leaving the forces and looking to transition into civilian life. Mitchel is now employed as a Field Service Engineer in Somerset.
Nathaniel (ex-Royal Engineers)
I found Demob Job to be very helpful in my transition into a civilian engineering role. After a rough pandemic, I was lacking in confidence in my skills and struggled to see where I would fit into a civilian role in my chosen field. Adrian took the time to really listen to my story and understand my goals and set about working to find a good fit. He helped me regain perspective and see what I had to offer. I was quickly matched to a great role and was subsequently successful at interview with the company director, being offered the role the same day. The whole process was seamless and quick but also considered, relaxed, and with tailored support throughout. I would highly recommend Demob Job to any veteran or service leaver. Nathaniel is now a Field Service Engineer in Suffolk.
