Reed Jobs Scraper

Extract public Reed.co.uk job listings from UK result pages or specific posting URLs. Each row is flat and typed for recruiting research, market analysis, alerts, spreadsheets, and data pipelines.

Why this actor?

• Search and detail modes cover discovery and focused enrichment.
• Hard result/page limits keep delivery and spend bounded.
• Errors, blocked pages, not-found pages, and empty searches are free.
• A no-match page is reported as "no jobs found" — never as a retried failure.
• Salary, work arrangement, and posting dates come from the page's own structured data where Reed publishes it.
• Public pages only: no login, profiles, applications, or contact enrichment.

Input

{"mode":"search","searchUrl":"https://www.reed.co.uk/jobs/software-engineer-jobs-in-london","maxResults":50,"maxPages":1}

For detail mode, set mode to detail and provide jobUrls (up to 100 public https://www.reed.co.uk/jobs/<slug>/<id> posting URLs).

FAQ

Does this scrape candidate profiles or submit applications? No. It reads public job listings only, never logs in, and never touches personal data.

Why are some rows missing salary numbers? Reed publishes structured salary only on the postings that state one; the displayed salary label is always kept verbatim.
