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
Rob (ex Royal Electrical and Mechanical Engineers (REME))
Joanne Foster and the Demob Job team were instrumental in supporting myself and my application in finding a new and fulfilling role, in an industry where my skillset fits and has the opportunity to develop further. Joanne fully supported me from the initial telephone conversation and numerous interviews to my first week in role assuring that the role was a fit for me as well as the company. Many recruiters disappear once the Job offer has been made, not Demob Job. The team continues to offer advice and support to ex-service individuals via their website and social media for no-return, this is a company with honest intentions to support ex-forces. I cannot recommend Demob Job highly enough. Rob is now employed as a Systems Auditor in Wiltshire.
Michelle (ex-Royal Navy Marine Engineer)
I cannot recommend Demob Job enough. Within 4 hours of applying for a position, Kim had called me to introduce herself and the agency, contacted the employer, secured me an interview and sent me a comprehensive email detailing who, what, where, why and when! She kept in touch throughout the whole process and I'm pleased to say I attended the interview and was successful. I have dealt with many agencies including some of the 'big' names and none came close to the professionalism and thorough work of Kim at Demob Job. Thank you. Technical Sales Engineer, Cheshire

Justin (ex-Royal Air Force Mechanical Aircraft Technician)
I left the RAF and began the laborious and slightly soul destroying task of searching for a job appropriate to my skill set. I was in contact with an old colleague who linked me to the advertisement posted on Demob Job by Joanne. I carefully read the criteria requested and contacted Joanne who promptly arranged a chat with me via telephone the next day. Joanne advised me of what the job entailed and after a brief informal Q&A, proposed to put me forward for the role of Field Service Engineer at a Marine company. I was thrilled to hear back that the company were interested in speaking to me via web interview initially and I was coached on some salient points to assist me with techniques and common questions. That interview was completed and Joanne kept in touch between myself and the company for feedback. I was then contacted back by Kim as Joanne had a holiday but I was made aware of this well in advance and Kim became my contact. I was delighted to hear that I was invited to the company HQ on Friday for a face to face interview after being shortlisted. I was delighted to be contacted by Kim to give me the good news that I had been offered the job. Joanne and Kim have been amazing throughout and I cannot thank them enough. I would describe Joanne and Kim as dynamic, highly professional, very supportive and confidence inspiring. I would recommend Demob Job to any service leaver be it imminent or out of the services for some time. Field Service Engineer, Durham
Craig (ex Royal Navy Logistics Specialist)
I left the Royal Navy in July 20 having served just under 7 years as a Supply Chain Logistics Specialist. DEMOB JOB approached me on the 24th July to discuss a vacancy they had available. After a few telephone conversations with DEMOB JOB regarding the position and a little bit of information about the company I was successful in being put forward for an interview with the company the following week. The next day I was again contacted by DEMOB JOB to inform me I had been successful in the interview and the company was offering me the position available. I accepted the offer and was given a start date. I would have no hesitation in recommending DEMOB JOB to any ex military personnel or current serving members who are in the process of leaving HM Armed Forces and seeking employment in civvie street. Craig is now employed as a Defence Operations Coordinator in Tyne & Wear.
