Who are we… We’re Your Talent Ally

Every company, regardless of its size, deserves access to high-quality talent. And every job seeker deserves to be seen, not buried in outdated portals or ghosted by HR.

That’s why Jobfam was built, from the ground up, with the goal of reshaping how UK businesses and professionals find each other.

We don’t slap together job listings and call it innovation. We built a fully integrated job posting platform in the UK that combines tech, data, and human insight to create a hiring experience that actually works.

Our Vision

We envision a job market that opens doors, not just within the UK, but also beyond it. A space where slow systems or local limits don’t hold back opportunity, and where every employer can find the right people, whether they’re down the street or across the sea. We’re working toward a hiring experience that feels fair, simple, and real. One that helps UK businesses grow stronger at home while giving them the wings to reach further when they’re ready.

Our Mission

We’re here to fix what’s broken in recruitment and make growth possible, wherever it leads. Too many UK companies lose time looking for the right people. Too many job seekers still chase roles that never call back. Jobfam builds better ways to bring them together. We help businesses find talent that fits, whether it’s for a local store or a team expanding overseas. And we make sure job seekers get real chances at real work. Every part of what we do is built to make hiring faster, fairer, and wide open to possibilities at home and beyond.

Story behind Jobfam: Bridging the Recruitment Gap in the UK

Recruitment Challenges in the UK

The UK labour market is large but highly inefficient. The Office for National Statistics reported around 916,000 job vacancies in early [2024 ons.gov.uk] , a high level even after recent declines yet employers often struggle to fill them. Indeed found that 55% of job applications go unanswered [hrreview.co.uk] , leaving candidates in limbo and eroding morale. Hiring managers feel the pain too: 61% say they waste time on inefficient or lengthy hiring processes[hrreview.co.uk].

Vacancies vs. Unemployment

Even with nearly a million vacancies [ons.gov.uk], there remain many jobseekers. Yet matching them is hard: 79% of applicants say it’s arduous to find suitable roles [hrreview.co.uk], and over half eventually give up searching. These stats show plenty of jobs exist, but the system fails to connect the right people with the right roles.

High Cost

Recruitment is costly. The Chartered Institute of Personnel & Development (CIPD) estimates that total cost per hire (including advertising, screening and admin) can range £600–£1,750 for typical roles [natwestmentor.co.uk]. Employers spend hours drafting ads, posting on multiple sites, and sorting applications, often with poor results.

How It Started

Our story began in the UK. A few of us noticed that employers were struggling to post jobs easily and connect with candidates without getting lost in layers of red tape and agency fees. So, we created a platform that lets people post a job and find talent directly, fast and without all the noise.

That was the plan. But soon, things changed. Businesses started asking, “Can we build teams abroad? Can we have a marketing or tech team somewhere else but still manage them like our own?” It made sense; hiring locally was getting expensive, and skilled people were everywhere. That’s when we took the next step.

What We Do Now

Now, we’re not just about the UK anymore. We still help companies post jobs and find UK talent, but we also make it possible to build global teams that work full-time for your company from our workspaces overseas, starting with India.

You get the people; we provide the place, handle HR, follow data protection laws, and make sure everything runs smoothly. You don’t have to worry about setting up offices or understanding local rules. We already did that part.

Our goal is to make global hiring feel as easy as hiring someone next door.

What We Believe

We believe good work can happen anywhere, in a small UK office or halfway across the world. When your company is aiming for optimum resource use and to get global talent into your organisation, you need to go beyond the borders. Our job is to make that connection real. We keep things simple, fair, and open.

If you’re an employer looking for people who actually fit, whether in the UK or globally, that’s what we do. We connect you with them, give them the right setup, and make sure you can both just get to work.

That’s the story, no big words, no noise, just a way to hire and grow without the usual barriers.

Why Jobfam is the real Recruitment Solutions

Problems inspired Jobfam. “We’re here to fix what’s broken in recruitment.” We build tools and services to bridge the gap between companies and candidates, not only in the UK but also abroad.

You decide what kind of team you need, maybe customer support, maybe developers, maybe marketing or a team to support clinical research. We find the right professionals and place them in one of our offices abroad. They work under your direction; we make sure the environment, systems, and compliance are solid.

We also built a tracking and feedback setup so you can stay connected with your team. You’ll always know what’s happening, even if you’re sitting in London and your team is working from Mumbai.

Our approach is rooted in the data; businesses no longer waste money and time on scattered ads, and job seekers get real responses.

No Hidden Fees

Traditional recruitment agencies often charge between 10–35% of an annual salary as placement fees. In the UK, the average cost per hire sits around £6,125.

At Jobfam, you pay nothing to post and only pay for services when you’re ready—transparent pricing and no surprises.

Reduce Recruitment Costs and Waste

A bad hire can cost a business as much as £132,000. Yet nearly 95% of UK businesses admit they make at least one bad hire each year.

We cut that risk by combining AI-screening with manual checks, speeding up time-to-hire by weeks. That means less unfilled vacancy drain and less turnover churn.

Trusted Experience, Not Guesswork

Jobfam’s leaders bring 10+ years in UK recruitment, compliance, and hiring tech. Our platform handles every step—from Right-to-Work checks to onboarding, salary setup, and training guidance.

We act as your bridge between candidate and company, ensuring both sides get the match and clarity they deserve.

Stable and Affordable Amid Market Uncertainty

The mid‑2025 UK hiring climate is cautious. Recruiters are facing one of the toughest stretches since the pandemic, and fees across the sector have dropped by up to 24% year-over-year.

Jobfam steps in by offering fixed, fair pricing with no upward surprises, especially critical in sectors like care, hospitality, and logistics, where budgets are tight.

Speed Meets Quality

In Q1 2025, the average hiring time across UK companies fell from 5.1 weeks to 4.6 weeks, yet nearly 70% of businesses still rated finding quality candidates as their biggest challenge.

By combining AI-powered matching with domain expertise and manual person-in-the-loop review, Jobfam offers speed and accuracy without compromise.
