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
Harun (ex Royal Signals – Communications Systems Engineer)
I applied for a technical role in Northern Ireland which closely matched my profile and I received a prompt call from Joanne at Demob Job to discuss my current situation and to organise an interview with a potential employer. She was so understanding of the daunting prospect of leaving the military and from the get-go, she was reassuring me that my skills and experience are attractive in the commercial sector. Joanne kept me in the loop and made sure I was never left wondering where I was in the application process. I don’t think I could have found such a good role that pays well and where I am able to utilise my skills from the military without her help. I fully recommend Joanne Foster and Demob Job to anyone wanting to resettle from their military in the future. Now employed as a Field Support Technician in Northern Ireland
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.
Stuart (Completed a full career in the Royal Air Force (RAF) as a Chef)
Demob Job was a fantastic agency to use. Very knowledgeable and professional and highly recommended for anyone leaving the services looking for a career in engineering. Stuart is now employed as a White Goods Engineer covering the Hampshire area.
Paul (Ex Royal Air Force Aircraft Technician)
“The team at Demob Job are not just a recruitment agency, they are also a support network to help match you with an employer, guide you through the recruitment process, and check up on your wellbeing after the whole process is completed. These are the people to go to when you are leaving your Armed Forces career. I cannot thank Demob Job enough for making me feel so valued, I cannot wait to start my new career”. Paul is about to start his new job as an Engineer Surveyor in Shropshire.
From Royal Navy to CHP Field Engineer: How Demob Job Helped Me Find the Right Fit
“After leaving the Navy I went home to Cornwall to seek employment which ended up being sparse in the engineering world. After a calculated move to Lancashire I was messaged by Joanne to discuss one of my applications for an engineering technician role with an energy company. Joanne kept contact with me throughout the whole four weeks to obtain my details and provide valuable information, motivation and assurance. I am happy to say that after a phone call interview and a formal on-site interview I was offered the position. Joanne has worked tirelessly providing me with the job details, company websites and ensuring I was comfortable with each step of the process.” Chris served in the Royal Navy as a Marine Engineer and is now a CHP Field Engineer in the North West.
Tom (ex-Royal Air Force Mechanical Engineer)
“This was the first time I had ever used Demob Job and I'm extremely glad I did! From the start, Demob Job were professional and friendly and throughout the whole process kept in contact with me every week ultimately connecting me with a company who are fantastic. I now have a career I see myself in for the rest of my life with an employer I don't think I'll ever need to change from. This is all thanks to Demob Job finding me the right job and placing me with the right company”. Tom is now employed as an Engineer Surveyor in the North West.
Graeme (Royal Signals Project Manager)
I recently got in touch with Emma at Demob Job regarding a role I was interested in, consequently, Emma then got in touch, and we discussed the role in more detail. My CV was then sent over to the company and I was invited for an interview. All the way through their process I was updated every step of the way by Emma and was then offered the job. I have really enjoyed working with Emma and cannot thank her enough for supporting me and keeping me updated every step of the way, it makes a huge difference. Thanks again for helping me secure my new job, I would recommend Emma and Demob Job without hesitation to anyone looking for help. Graeme is now a Defence Customer Support Manager.
