Actors are a software tools running on the Apify platform, for all kinds of web data extraction and automation use cases. In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours, and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store. In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server. Actors are written with capital "A". ## How to integrate an Actor? If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects. You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready. The best way to integrate Actors is as follows. In JavaScript/TypeScript projects, use official [JavaScript/TypeScript client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js.md): ```bash npm install apify-client ``` In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python.md): ```bash pip install apify-client ``` In shell scripts, use [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): ````bash # MacOS / Linux curl -fsSL https://apify.com/install-cli.sh | bash # Windows irm https://apify.com/install-cli.ps1 | iex ```bash In AI frameworks, you might use the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/mcp.md). If your project is in a different language, use the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md). For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below. For more details, see Apify documentation as [Markdown index](https://docs.apify.com/llms.txt) and [Markdown full-text](https://docs.apify.com/llms-full.txt). # README ## S1 Jobs Scraper: Scotland Jobs, Salaries & Employers **S1 Jobs** is Scotland's leading job board, advertising thousands of live vacancies across Glasgow, Edinburgh, Aberdeen, Dundee, Inverness, and the Highlands. This Actor pulls every job listing and decodes the full `JobPosting` JSON-LD schema into clean, structured rows ready for B2B lead generation, salary benchmarking, or recruitment analytics. Pay-per-result pricing, no subscription, no minimums. ### What does S1 Jobs Scraper do? Scrape [s1jobs.com](https://www.s1jobs.com) at scale. Enter any combination of keywords (electrician, nurse, accountant, project-manager, driver) and locations (Glasgow, Edinburgh, Aberdeen, Fife, Highlands), and the Actor walks the search listings, follows the next page links, and fetches each job's detail page. Detail pages are parsed from the embedded Schema.org `JobPosting` JSON-LD block, giving you perfectly structured data with no fragile DOM scraping. Each row contains the job ID, title, employer name and logo, full description, posting and expiry dates, employment type, parsed salary band (min / max / currency / period), and structured address (locality, region, postal code, country, latitude, longitude). The Actor is built on Crawlee + Cheerio, so it runs on lightweight HTTP, not a browser. Standard datacenter IPs succeed without proxies. Built for recruiters, talent intelligence teams, salary researchers, regional economic analysts, and CRM enrichment pipelines. ### Why use S1 Jobs Scraper? - **Scotland-only coverage.** S1 Jobs is the dominant job board for Scottish vacancies. Capture roles the major UK-wide boards miss. - **B2B leads with logos.** Every job row ships the employer name and logo URL. Drop straight into HubSpot, Salesforce, or Airtable. - **Salary benchmarking.** Parse raw salary strings into structured `min`, `max`, `currency`, and `period` fields. Run market-rate research across regions and sectors. - **Geo-coordinates.** Address parsing includes latitude and longitude for every job. Power maps and heatmaps. - **Job alerts pipeline.** Filter by `dateWithinDays` to emit only fresh postings. Wire into Slack, email, or webhook alerts. - **No anti-bot blocks.** Standard datacenter IPs work. No residential proxy spend required. ### How to use S1 Jobs Scraper 1. **Open the Input tab.** Type one or more keywords (e.g. `electrician, driver`) and one or more locations (e.g. `glasgow, edinburgh`). Or paste specific listing or detail URLs into **Start URLs** for surgical precision. 2. **Click Run.** The Actor queues listing pages, walks pagination, and fetches every detail page. 3. **Download the dataset.** Output is available as JSON, CSV, Excel, or via the API. Choose from four pre-built views: Overview, B2B Leads, Salary Benchmark, and Newest Postings. ### Input | Field | Type | Description | Default | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | `startUrls` | array | Paste listing URLs (e.g. `https://www.s1jobs.com/jobs/electrician/in-glasgow/`) or detail URLs. Overrides keyword/location filters when set. | `[]` | | `keywords` | array | Job titles, sectors, or categories. Each becomes a `/jobs//` path. Examples: `electrician`, `nurse`, `accountant`, `project-manager`, `driver`, `teacher`, `social-care`. | `[]` | | `locations` | array | Scottish cities or regions. Each becomes a `/in-/` path. Examples: `glasgow`, `edinburgh`, `aberdeen`, `dundee`, `fife`, `highlands`, `orkney`. | `[]` | | `maxItems` | integer | Maximum job rows to emit per search URL (1-10000). | `100` | | `includeDescription` | boolean | Emit full HTML description. Set `false` for lean B2B lead rows (~1 KB instead of ~10 KB). | `true` | | `dateWithinDays` | integer | Only emit jobs posted within the last N days. `0` = no filter. | `0` | | `maxConcurrency` | integer | Parallel HTTP requests for detail pages (1-20). | `8` | | `maxRequestRetries` | integer | Per-URL retry budget on transient errors and 5xx (0-10). | `3` | | `proxyConfiguration` | object | S1 Jobs does not block datacenter IPs. Leave disabled for cheapest runs. | `{ "useApifyProxy": false }` | #### Example input ```json { "keywords": ["electrician", "driver"], "locations": ["glasgow", "edinburgh"], "maxItems": 250, "includeDescription": true, "dateWithinDays": 30, "maxConcurrency": 8 } ```` ### Output Each row is one job posting. Download the dataset in JSON, CSV, HTML, or Excel. The Actor also writes a `run-summary` to the key-value store with top employers, top locations, salary distribution, and contract type counts. #### Example row ```json { "rowType": "job", "listingUrl": "https://www.s1jobs.com/jobs/electrician/in-glasgow/", "jobId": "126836433", "jobUrl": "https://www.s1jobs.com/job/electrician-engineer-126836433", "title": "Electrician Engineer", "description": "

Pay only for the data you extract. A 5,000-row run costs about $9.95 of platform credit. Compute and storage costs are negligible because the Actor runs on lightweight HTTP, not a browser. No subscription, no minimums, no proxy overhead. ### Tips or Advanced options - **Use `startUrls` for precision.** If you only want jobs from a specific listing, paste the URL directly. Direct detail URLs always emit 1 row each. - **Combine keywords and locations.** Every keyword is paired with every location, so `["electrician", "driver"]` x `["glasgow", "edinburgh"]` produces 4 search URLs. - **Trim descriptions for B2B lead lists.** Set `includeDescription: false` to drop description HTML. Rows shrink from ~10 KB to ~1 KB, so a 10,000-row run costs 10x less to store. - **Tighten freshness.** Set `dateWithinDays: 7` to only emit jobs posted in the last week. Great for daily job alerts. - **Avoid burning rate limits.** S1 Jobs is open. Default `maxConcurrency: 8` is comfortable. If you observe 429s, drop to 4 or enable Apify Residential GB. - **Use the B2B Leads view.** In the Output tab, switch to the `leads` view to see a clean table of title, employer, location, and apply URL ready for CRM import. ### FAQ, disclaimers, and support **Is scraping S1 Jobs legal?** This Actor accesses publicly available job postings. You are responsible for ensuring your use case complies with s1jobs.com's Terms of Service, the UK Computer Misuse Act, and applicable data protection laws. Do not republish full descriptions verbatim. This Actor is intended for personal research, recruitment analytics, and CRM enrichment, not bulk redistribution. **How fresh is the data?** The Actor fetches live pages in real time. Job postings appear in your dataset within seconds of the run completing. **Why are some salaries missing?** S1 Jobs JSON-LD sometimes includes only `unitText` (e.g. `YEAR`) without numeric min/max values. The Actor captures the period but leaves min/max as `null`. Set `includeDescription: true` and parse the visible salary string in your downstream pipeline for a second pass. **What's the difference between S1 Jobs Scraper and `cwjobs-scraper`?** CWJobs targets the UK tech / IT job market on cwjobs.co.uk. S1 Jobs targets general Scottish vacancies on s1jobs.com. They are sister Actors in the same portfolio and use the same JSON-LD extraction logic. **How do I report a bug or request a feature?** Open an issue in the [Issues tab](https://console.apify.com/actors/~console/runs). Include the run ID and a sample URL that reproduces the problem. Need a custom scraper for another regional job board or a vertical-specific extractor? Custom development is available on request. # Actor input Schema ## `startUrls` (type: `array`): Optional. Paste S1 Jobs listing URLs (e.g. https://www.s1jobs.com/jobs/electrician/in-glasgow/).
