Christian Jobs

What Christian Jobs does

Christian Jobs Ltd is a UK-based niche job board marketplace that connects Christian job seekers with Christian employers — primarily churches, Christian charities, ministries, and faith-led organizations across the United Kingdom and, more recently, Canada. Founded in 2019 by James Everall (CEO) and Rob Mumford (CTO), the company operates a self-serve web platform at christianjobs.co.uk offering three service tiers: free volunteer postings (unlimited, for UK charities), standard job advertising at £100 (ex VAT) per 30-day listing, and bespoke Executive Search services for senior appointments. Listed employers include well-known names such as Wycliffe Bible Translators, Christians Against Poverty, Compassion UK, Kids Matter, Church Society, and Transforming Lives for Good.

The platform is built on a standard web-based job board architecture with candidate database, posting management, and search functionality. Notable technical components include Google Job Search integration for organic distribution, social login via Facebook, Google, and LinkedIn, Stripe-based online payment processing, video and audio embedding within postings, and post-advert analytics. The proprietary candidate database, which is bundled into the Executive Search tier for headhunting purposes, represents the core data asset.

The business model combines transactional revenue from £100 job listings with higher-value, custom-priced Executive Search engagements, underpinned by an 87% placement success rate. Distribution is primarily self-serve through the website, augmented by an eight-partner referral ecosystem that includes Christians Against Poverty, Stewardship, Safe Families, Kingdom Bank, and Cornerstone Resources. The company is privately held, bootstrapped, and operates with a small team of seven employees based at Hyde Park House in Hyde, Greater Manchester.

Scale indicators5 records

Recent moves6 records

Expansion highlights4 records

Broad incumbents

• Indeed: World's largest job search engine and job board incumbent. Competes with Christian Jobs for general visibility on Christian-sector roles and offers free/low-cost posting at massive scale, though it lacks Christian Jobs' niche community, sector relationships, and executive search capability.
• Totaljobs: Established UK job board incumbent with broad sector coverage including nonprofit roles. Competes with Christian Jobs on price-per-posting economics and traffic scale but lacks the faith-specific candidate pool and community trust that mission-aligned employers value.
• Reed: UK's largest job board and recruitment platform incumbent. Serves the same UK employer market with broader reach but lacks the faith-specific positioning, sector specialism, and Christian candidate community that Christian Jobs provides to faith-based employers.
• LinkedIn: Global professional network with integrated job board functionality serving all sectors including nonprofits. Could at any time introduce values/faith filters to compete directly with niche players, though it does not currently match Christian Jobs' community depth or executive search service.
• CV-Library: Major UK job board with a large candidate database. Offers similar posting-based pricing and scale, competing for general UK employer spend but without the faith-aligned candidate community or executive search specialism that differentiates Christian Jobs.
• Adzuna: UK-focused job search engine and job board aggregator. Competes for visibility on Christian-sector roles via SEO and serves similar SMB employer customers, though it operates at much broader sector scope without Christian Jobs' faith community specialism.
• ZipRecruiter: Large global job marketplace platform with AI-driven matching. Represents the broad-incumbent model of technology-led recruitment at scale; though not UK/faith-focused, it competes for the same employer recruitment budget category and demonstrates the disruptive threat well-capitalised platforms pose to niche players.

Direct peers

• ChurchStaffing: Long-established US job board serving Christian churches, ministries, and faith-based organisations for staff hiring. Same product category (faith-focused job marketplace), serving functionally identical customers (churches seeking pastors, worship leaders, admin staff) although in a different geography.
• CharityJob: UK-focused job board dedicated to the charity and nonprofit sector. Directly competes with Christian Jobs for the same employer customers (charities, missions, faith-based NGOs) and overlapping candidate pools in the UK third-sector hiring market.
• ChurchJobs.com: Online job board focused exclusively on Christian church, ministry, and faith-based employment opportunities globally. Directly comparable niche product targeting the same candidate and employer segments, although with US-centric traffic.
