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

Alex (ex Royal Navy – Leading Air Engineering Technician)

Emma Saxton was great in finding me work after I had put my notice in with the Royal Navy.  After an uncertain time, I was beginning to worry about finding civilian employment, but this changed when I contacted Demob Job.  After speaking with Emma, I felt more confident and positive about my job search.  Emma found me a job with a leading multinational industrial engineering company with terms and conditions which far surpassed any expectation I had with leaving the Armed Forces, I was thrilled.  I would encourage anybody leaving their military career to contact Demob Job.  Alex is now a Field Service Engineer in Cumbria.

Charles (ex REME Armourer)

When I first applied for my current position I wasn’t waiting long, Joanne had read my CV and contacted me within 30 minutes and was gathering information pertaining to the job advertised. This professional and friendly attitude along with continuous updates made the whole experience seamless as well as stress-free. Joanne did a wonderful job handling the details between me and my now current employer. I’ve been with a few contracting companies before and this has by far been the easiest I’ve encountered.

Liam (Ex Royal Air Force Mechanical Engineer)

“I cannot praise enough the help and support Kelly provided me from Demob Job recruitment agency, she has been absolutely brilliant during my job search and interview process. Utmost professional finding out what my strengths and previous engineering experience was to match me with similar commercial job positions for when I leave my military career. Thank you for motivating and encouraging me while making this process so seamless”.  Liam has now secured a new job within a manufacturing environment as a Maintenance Engineer in South Yorkshire.

Dave (Ex Royal Engineers)

“I saw a post on LinkedIn about Demob Job and then signed up to their site. I continued to monitor for updates, looking for interesting engineering roles in my area.  Once a role grabbed my attention I applied through their site and not long after received a call from Adrian Cheesman.  He talked through my experience, expectations, the employer and the realities of the role.  I have since received an offer of employment and would like to express my sincere thanks to Adrian and Joanne Foster at Demob for their help, support and guidance throughout this process.  I would highly recommend Demob Job to anyone leaving or thinking of leaving the military with an Engineering/Technical background as a route to employment!”.  Dave is now employed as a Field Service Engineer in West Yorkshire.

Owen (ex Royal Navy electrically biased Weapons Engineer)

A great process. From the first call I received where the opportunity was introduced to the call on the Friday before I started the job Joanne was helpful, professional, and always at the end of the phone if I had any inquiries. Many thanks to Joanne Foster and Demob Job for the opportunity, I am enjoying my new employment.  Owen is now a Service Engineer in Gloucester.

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.

Julian (ex British Army – Household Cavalry Regiment)
