Overview

The Reed.co.uk API provides UK job search, salary, employer and course data for recruitment research and job discovery applications. Search listings by location and role, enrich them with job details, and compare salary information across searches.

Search and data coverage

Location suggestions and resolution routes translate place names and postcodes into usable search inputs. /search-jobs supports keywords, sectors, salary ranges and employment filters, with /search-jobs-by-url for existing Reed links. Job details, batch lookup and similar-job endpoints help build individual job records and recommendations.

Application counts, salary benchmarks and sector job counts provide research inputs beyond the advert itself. Employer search, company profiles and employer job inventories connect listings to hiring organizations. Course search, subjects, details and reviews cover the Reed Courses catalog.

What you can build

  • UK job boards and role-based vacancy search
  • Salary benchmarking by role, sector and location
  • Employer hiring activity and application-count research
  • Course discovery for recruitment and career products

Coverage and comparison tips

Coverage includes UK towns, cities, counties and postcodes. Keep employment type, salary unit and location filters aligned when comparing salaries or vacancy counts. The documented API retrieves data; it does not apply for jobs or enroll users in courses.

Getting started

Start with /sectors to discover the identifiers and filter values used by the routes above. Then test a focused request such as /location-suggestions?query=London and inspect its JSON response before adding more filters or pagination. The endpoint list below reflects the supplied OpenAPI specification.
