Where the data comes from

We read 18 employer-operated career boards directly. No aggregator feeds, no scraped third-party databases. Every advert on this page maps to a live posting we can evidence, with a first-seen and last-seen date. Adverts are written by our research team and published anonymously; the employer list below is the market we cover, not a key to individual roles.
