Every job ad will have pay and specific location labelled because we are going to make it compulsory for advertisers to detail them

We’re making four changes to help you find and search jobs on this site even more easily.

1) ‘Refine by pay’ options when job searching

2) ‘Work From Home’ label for jobs

3) We'll make it mandatory for every job to have very specific location details

4) We'll make it mandatory for every job to have very specific pay details

These changes will also be made to our three sister sites too: Socialcare.co.uk, Healthjobs.co.uk, Healthcarejobs.ie.

You Need To Know

Here's why we're doing this.

We know what you guys need to know when you’re looking for a job.

You want to know where the job is, what it is you’ll do, and what you’ll be paid.

And yet, some job advertisers on our site prefer to not reveal the detail you need.

We get it: it’s competitive in job land and those hiring believe that by not revealing too much they will widen the recruitment net and catch more interested jobseekers.

They also feel it prevents competitors knowing too much about the roles they have.

The problem is, their jobs won’t surface in searches on pay and location.

What’s more, if you do find a job which doesn't have pay or location details, you’ll probably move on to the next job ad which does.

So that's what we're doing and it's coming soon!

Please support us by using Nurses.co.uk to find your next job - and tell your friends and colleagues too.

Below is more information about these updates.

Refine By Pay Option

This will be deployed live on September 9th and you will see it on all job search pages so you can refine searches by pay.

For instance, pages like this and pages like this.

We know that Pay gives our audience confidence that a job is suitable for them and worth spending the time making an application for.

New ‘Work From Home’ Label

Covid seems to be changing the way we work, even for some in the health and care sector where personal contact is the norm.

So the time is right to add a new ‘Work From Home’ label when a specific location for a place of work isn’t accurate.

This will be live within the coming months.

Every Job Will Display Accurate Location

You might still see some jobs on this site that have inaccurate or vague locations.

Soon, we will make it mandatory that every job posted is linked to a town or city.

For too long some jobs still only get posted to a County level.

That’s not great for you when trying to search for a job near your home.

And some recruiters are missing out too - they wouldn’t hear from you because you don’t see the job appear in your local job searches!

Every Job Will Display Pay Details

Similarly, we’re going to make sure every job posted has an hourly pay rate or annual salary linked to it.

Who doesn’t want to know what they’ll be paid?

And since we’ve now made it a searchable item we want to give every recruiter the chance to have their job appear in your searches!

About this contributor

I launched Nurses.co.uk (and subsequently Socialcare.co.uk, Healthjobs.co.uk and Healthcarejobs.ie) in 2008. 500 applications are made every day via our jobs boards, helping to connect hiring organisations recruiting for clinical, medical, care and support roles with specialist jobseekers. Our articles, often created by our own audience, shine a light on the career pathways in healthcare, and give a platform to ideas and opinions around their work and jobs.
