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.

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

Royal Navy Marine Engineer secures new career as an Offshore Technician

“I recently left the Armed Forces and was looking for a new challenge.  After looking for a new career by myself I wasn't having much luck until I was contacted by Joanne Foster at Demob Job. She offered excellent service and helped me get a job offer that was beyond my expectations. The Demob Job was very friendly and helpful, offered advice and assistance with preparing for interviews, and made searching for a job as straightforward and stress-free as possible. I would highly recommend the services of Demob Job, and have already recommended them to others who are leaving their military careers.”  – Former Royal Navy Marine Engineer, now an Offshore Technician.

Joe (ex-Royal Navy Marine Engineer)

Having seen a job advertised on DemobJob.co.uk, I registered my CV online and applied. Joanne contacted me straight away to confirm my application, she then introduced me to the company and successfully got me a telephone interview, which went really well.  I then had a face to face interview with the company and was subsequently offered the job.  Joanne and her team did a remarkable job which I cannot thank them enough they are genuinely there to help and without their guidance and knowledge I wouldn't have been so successful. Field Service Engineer, Cleveland

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.

James (Served in the Royal Air Force as a Mechanical Aircraft Engineer)

“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.
