Who are Demob Job?

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

From REME Vehicle Mechanic to Field Installation Technician: A Standout Recruitment Experience

“I applied for a job via the CTP portal, the response from the Demob Job was very quick and the first call was very informative regarding the role.  Joanne was very accommodating with setting up interviews and has kept me updated during the whole process.  Even a quick phone call to say they are currently waiting to hear back from the employer was always appreciated.  I can honestly say this is the best experience I have ever had with a recruiter, I have already recommended them to other service leavers and will continue to do so in the future.” James was a Level 3 Vehicle Mechanic in the Royal Electrical and Mechanical Engineers and is now employed as a Field Installation Technician in Leicestershire.

Matt (ex-Royal Navy Assistant Marine Engineering Officer)

I was contacted by Emma having just left the Royal Navy about helping to find me work. After discussing my background and experience she spoke to me in detail about a role which she thought was a strong fit.  I consequently applied and was invited for an interview. Within hours of attending the interview Emma contacted me and told me I had been successful. Throughout the whole process she kept me informed of my progress and gave me advice on how to prepare for the interview. Most importantly I felt like she treated me as a person and not just another case. Highly professional and polite, I couldn’t recommend them enough to any Ex-Forces personnel. Thank you Emma and thank you Demob Job! Project Engineer, Tyne and Wear

“It has been an absolute pleasure working with Kelly Chandler and Demob Job. From the very start she has been extremely helpful, consistently checking up to make sure I had everything I needed at each stage of the process. I would recommend Demob Job to anyone due to their warm and welcoming nature, I can’t thank Kelly enough for what she has done for me.” Josh served in the Royal Air Force as a Ground Support Technician and is now an Engineer Surveyor in London.

Sam (ex Royal Navy Engineer)

From the very first phone call Jack has been nothing but professional and helpful. He arranged an interview for me which I was successful in and has supported me in the process following. It's good to know people like Jack are out there helping ex-military find their perfect jobs. Sam is now employed as a Junior Engineer in the renewables sector.

Robert (ex-Royal Navy Marine Engineer)

I recieved a phone call from Emma explaining a vacancy had become available. Emma was very polite and helpful throughout the process and advised me before and after the interview. Any questions or queries I had were dealt with by Emma after hearing the good news of a successful interview and following job offer. Had Emma not of made the original phone call recognising my skills and job to suit I would not find myself working for a successful company in a role I enjoy. Thank you Emma. Project Engineer (Mechancial), Northumberland

John (Previously served in the Royal Navy as an Engineer)

“Joanne was very helpful in finding me employment on upon transitioning from a 15-year career in the Royal Navy.  Although at the time there were limited employers advertising roles that matched my skillset, Joanne managed to find hidden roles with local companies with whom she and Demob Job have close relationships with.  Her hard work, perseverance and contacts within industry managed to secure me my ideal role.  I'd also like to add that her support and mentoring during the process, helped enable my success in securing employment, during what can be a stressful process. I would definitely recommend Joanne and Demob Job to any service leaver”.  John is now employed as a Project Engineer in the North East.

Richard (ex British Army – Royal Signals Electrician)

I was contacted by Joanne Foster from Demob Job recruitment agency regarding an exciting opportunity within a national engineering company.  Throughout the recruitment process I was kept fully informed at every stage of the selection process, the communication was excellent and at no stage was I left not knowing exactly what was expected from me.  I would like to thank Joanne for all the hard work she has done over the last four months.  Richard is now employed as a Service Engineer in Kent.
