What Jobs for Humanity does

Jobs for Humanity is a for-profit job marketplace founded in 2021 by Roy Baladi that connects underrepresented job seekers—including refugees, neurodivergent individuals, veterans, LGBTQIA+, people with disabilities, returning citizens, and single parents—with employers committed to inclusive hiring. The platform is built on SmartRecruiters' licensed recruitment technology and operates a dual-component offering: a job board with 3,778 live jobs indexed against 1,213,661 candidates, and a DE&I Training Platform with modules on inclusive hiring for 15+ community verticals, plus coaching and mentorship matching. A proprietary resume/key-results matching system formulates job objectives, extracts skills, and ranks candidates across 1M+ profiles using a multi-stage filtering pipeline.

Revenue is generated through employer subscriptions for premium job postings (gated by a 21-day free trial offering full candidate profile access and unlimited postings) and professional-services fees for DE&I training and job seeker coaching. Go-to-market is dual-sided: direct, self-service employer sign-ups complemented by an integration with WorkLLama that instantaneously dispatches roles to a 250,000+ talent network, plus co-development partnerships with organizations such as Booking.com, HIAS, and Fable Pathways that broaden reach into specific verticals.

Founder Roy Baladi previously held Head of Marketplace roles at PerkSpot and SmartRecruiters, lending direct ATS and two-sided marketplace expertise. Operating geographies include the United States, Canada, Germany, India, UAE, and Australia. Named enterprise customers span travel/hospitality (Booking.com, Virgin), pharma (Merck, Novartis), publishing (Macmillan Learning, Macmillan Publishers), technology (DocuSign), food and beverage (Sodexo, Sucafina, KeHe), financial services (Fitch), luxury retail (Cartier), insurance (Damana), telecommunications (Telus), and staffing (YUPRO Placement, FP7). Reported training-program outcomes include 79 interviews and 18 offers secured via the Booking.com program, 90 mentors engaged, and an NPS of +36%.
