Ideella jobb

What Ideella jobb does

Ideella jobb is a Swedish non-profit job board platform operating at ideellajobb.se, focused exclusively on the Swedish ideell (non-profit and civil society) sector. Founded in 2022 and operated by Forum – idéburna organisationer med social inriktning (org.nr 802018-0488) under the parent organization Ideella Sverige, the platform connects employers — including ideella föreningar (non-profit associations), stiftelser (foundations), trossamfund (religious communities), sociala företag (social enterprises), and SVB-bolag — with job seekers seeking paid positions and internships in civil society. Political parties and their youth organizations are explicitly excluded. The technical offering is a web-based job board with basic filtering by region, scope, and subject area, plus a manual review process for posted listings. There is no mobile app, no public API, and no proprietary machine learning components.

The platform monetizes through transaction fees on job listings, with a standard ad priced at SEK 799 and a premium 'Jobb i fokus' placement at SEK 2,500, plus a SEK 99 two-week extension option. As a VAT-exempt non-profit, the entity reinvests any surplus into its mission. Distribution is self-serve through the website and reinforced through free bulk sharing of every listing to the company's LinkedIn, Facebook, and X accounts. Volontärbyrån serves as a referral partner for unpaid volunteer and board positions. The platform attracts 200,000+ annual visitors and maintains a small operational footprint of approximately six employees. The first pricing adjustment since 2022 is scheduled for February 2026, signaling commercial maturation of a niche, mission-driven marketplace.

Core offering

Ideella jobb operates ideellajobb.se, a web-based job board platform dedicated exclusively to the Swedish ideell (non-profit and civil society) sector. Employers such as foundations, faith communities, non-profit associations, social enterprises and SVB companies pay to post paid positions and internships; job seekers access listings free of charge. The platform offers two tiers — standard listings (799 SEK) and premium featured placements under "Jobb i fokus" (2,500 SEK) — with automatic distribution of all ads via LinkedIn, Facebook and X at no extra cost.

Product overview

Ideella jobb operates as a single-product job board platform — ideellajobb.se — focused exclusively on the Swedish non-profit and civil society sector. The core offering is a job advertisement platform that allows idéburna organisationer (non-profit organisations such as foundations, faith communities, associations, social enterprises, and SVB companies) to post paid positions and internships. The platform offers two advertising tiers: a standard job advertisement (ordinary listing) and a premium job advertisement (featured listing with enhanced homepage placement). Both tiers include automatic distribution of postings via LinkedIn, Facebook, and X. The platform does not sell separate modules, add-on features, or SaaS products beyond these two advertising products.

Scale indicators4 records

Recent moves6 records

Expansion highlights3 records

Broad incumbents

• Academic Work: Swedish staffing and recruitment firm placing candidates into a range of organizations including non-profits. Adjacent competitor for entry-level and project-based civil-society hiring.
• Platsbanken (Arbetsförmedlingen): Sweden's official public employment service job board operated by Arbetsförmedlingen. Reaches a large share of Swedish job seekers and is a default channel for many employers, including civil society organizations.
• LinkedIn Jobs: The dominant global professional network with a job board embedded into its platform. Competes for the same Swedish job-seeking audience and employer base but serves all sectors broadly rather than specializing in ideell-sector roles.
• StepStone Sweden: European generalist job board with Swedish operations. Competes for employer spend and job-seeker attention across professional and non-profit roles in Sweden.
• Indeed Sweden: Global generalist job aggregator with significant Swedish traffic. Overlaps with Ideella jobb in serving job seekers and posting employers, but without ideell-sector specialization or curation.

Direct peers

• Offentliga Jobb: Swedish job board focused on public-sector and adjacent civil-society hiring. Closely analogous vertical-specialist model serving Sweden-based mission-driven employers.
• Jobsafari: Swedish-focused online job board. Closely comparable in business model (paid employer listings, free job-seeker access) and target geography, though it serves the broader Swedish market rather than ideell-specific roles.

Emerging players

• Volontärbyrån: Sweden-based platform for volunteer and unpaid civic engagement roles. Already a formal referral partner of Ideella jobb — they split the paid vs unpaid civil-society engagement market between them.
