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

Jack (ex Royal Air Force Aircraft Technician)

“Demob Job, have been amazing in helping me secure my new career.  As a service leaver, having served many years in the Royal Air Force, joining the civilian world was daunting. But finding Demob Job was exactly what I needed, they understood my position and made everything as pain-free as possible.  I was introduced to the employer and an interview was arranged within 24 hours.  Throughout the process, Demob Job kept in touch and helped me prepare for the interview, giving me some great advice.  I was offered the job, and again, Adrian called congratulating me giving me all the information on the next steps, staying in touch right up to my first day in my new job. I would give Demob Job 10 out of 10”.  Jack is now an Engineer Surveyor in Essex.

Roger (ex Royal Navy Weapons Engineer)

After being made redundant from my previous employer due to being furloughed for over 3 months, I was contacted by Joanne Foster at Demob Job, and was quickly offered the chance of an interview.  Within 48 hours of being contacted, I attended an interview and I was offered employment.  I was really impressed with the help and information that was available to me.  Joanne even followed up after my employment was finalised and made sure I was ready to start my new job the following week.  I would highly recommend Demob Job to anyone leaving their military career.  Roger is now employed as a Service Repair Technician in Warwickshire.

Another RAF Aircraft Technician secures new job as an Engineer Surveyor: Demob Job

"I am thrilled to share my experience interacting with Kelly Chandler, a truly exceptional recruitment consultant. As an ex-RAF Aircraft Technician transitioning into the civilian workforce, I was initially apprehensive about finding a role that suited my skills and experience. However, Kelly's professional yet personal approach put me at ease from our very first interaction.  Kelly took the time to understand my unique background and aspirations, ensuring she matched me with opportunities that aligned with my experience and goals. Her knowledge of the industry and genuine interest in my career progression made the entire process smooth and stress-free. What truly sets Kelly apart is her ability to connect on a personal level while maintaining the highest level of professionalism. She was always available to answer my questions and provided invaluable advice throughout the recruitment process.  Thanks to Kelly, I am now happily employed as an engineering surveyor, in a position that perfectly fits my skills and ambitions. I cannot recommend Kelly highly enough for anyone seeking a dedicated, empathetic, and highly skilled recruitment agent. She not only finds you a job but also ensures it is the right fit for your career journey." – Former RAF Mechanical Aircraft Technician, now an Engineer Surveyor.

Luke (ex-Royal Signals Communications Systems Engineer)

Joanne approached me upon finding my CV online, she was very friendly and extremely enthusiastic about the role she matched to me. Joanne had a very good understanding of my skills interpenetrated from my CV and understood my background well. Throughout the whole process Joanne kept me informed of any news very promptly and I believe she liaised with the company to the highest standard. I would recommend Joanne and DEMOB JOB to any of my colleagues that may leave the forces in the future. Communications Systems Engineering Team Leader, Manchester

Stephen (ex Royal Air Force Avionics Technician)

‘Jack was a fantastic support going through the application process for the job. I had applied for another position through Demob Job but Jack identified a further role that he believed was a better fit. When it came to interview time his support increased dramatically, always keeping in touch with the employer and myself continuously updating us on the next stage. After the interview Jack’s hard work continued by communicating with both parties making sure each was happy. Jack put in maximum effort during the entire process, and after I had been successful his follow-up care was second to none.  Not only a total professional but an absolute top guy’. Steve now works as a Maintenance Engineer in Scotland.
