How to Use our Job Search Tool

Looking for a new role and want to know exactly what you'll take home? Our job search tool doesn't just list vacancies - it shows you the real salary after tax for every listing, so there are no surprises when your first payslip arrives.

Here's how to get the most out of it.

Step 1: Search for Jobs

Start by entering a location, optional job title, and select a job category. You can filter by location if you'd like to focus on opportunities in a particular area, or enter 'UK' to search across the country. Results are pulled from current UK vacancies, and each listing displays the advertised salary alongside a net pay estimate - calculated automatically using our salary calculator engine. That means you see the headline figure and what actually lands in your bank account, side by side with the difference to your current net take home pay.

Step 2: Explore Salary Insights

We've also provided a set of data-driven insights and tools that go well beyond a simple job listings:

  • Salary Prediction - Based on the job title and skills you describe, this estimates the salary we think you could expect.
  • Salary Trends - A histogram chart showing how pay for the job title/location/category is currently spread across vacancies over the last twelve months, helping you spot where wages are headed right now.
  • Salary Distribution - See a histogram chart of how salaries are spread across all matching listings, from entry-level to top-end, so you know where a particular offer sits in the wider market.
  • Summary by Region & Employer - Quickly compare which parts of the country (and which employers) are advertising the most for the roles you're interested in.
Step 3: Use the Tax & Comparison Widgets

You also have access to four job search related tax widgets:

  • Employer Total Cost Calculator - Curious what a business actually pays to employ someone at a given salary? This widget factors in Employer National Insurance (15% since April 2025) and other on-costs. It's especially useful if you're negotiating a package or considering starting your own business.
  • Compare Job Offers - Weighing up two or more offers? Plug in the salaries, pension contributions and any other benefits and get a clear, like-for-like comparison of take-home pay.
  • Contract vs Permanent - Contracting and trying to figure out how a daily rate compares to a traditional PAYE salary? This widget breaks down the differences between a permanent PAYE role and working through a contract.
  • Side Hustle Tax Calculator - Already employed but looking to earn extra on the side? Enter your main salary and your additional income to see how the extra earnings could be taxed - no guesswork needed.
Step 4: Dive Deeper

Found a salary you'd like to investigate further? Click through to a detailed breakdown using our tax calculator, or run the numbers through the payslip calculator to see a month-by-month view of income tax, National Insurance and student loan deductions.

Whether you're actively job hunting or simply benchmarking your current salary, the job search tool puts the full financial picture at your fingertips - because the salary on a job advert is only half the story.
