You have a default value for JobTitle that sets the field to AccountID for some reason. As I've suggested in the past, it would be better to use rules for ...

I noticed that I'd set up an earlier rule that was populating the fields with my details so I stripped them out.

I encourage you to put the query & data fields for that data connection on your form, temporarily, and add a button that queries it so you can try setting the query field manually and seeing the results.
