UK Companies Hiring Now: LinkedIn Jobs + Companies House

Not a list of job ads. A list of the UK companies behind them, with their official company record.

Type a role and a UK place. You get one row per company that is hiring for it right now: how many jobs it has open, which ones, where and since when, its website, size and headquarters, and its Companies House record: company number, status, registered office, incorporation date, SIC activity and current directors.

That is a real row from a run on 17 October 2026 ("warehouse operative" and "forklift driver" in London and Birmingham).

Who it is for

• Recruitment agencies and staffing firms: the companies hiring warehouse operatives this week are the ones that will take a call about temps. minOpenJobs: 3 keeps the ones hiring in volume.
• B2B sales: forklift training, PPE, workwear, HR and payroll software, van leasing. A company hiring 10 drivers is a company buying.
• Market research: who is hiring what, where, and how big they are.

The company number turns a brand on LinkedIn into a legal entity you can look up, invoice, credit-check or add to a CRM without duplicates.

What you get per company

From LinkedIn's public job listings: companyName, openJobs, jobTitles, jobLocations, newestJobDate, oldestJobDate, jobs (up to 20 with title, link, location and date), searchTerms.

From the company's LinkedIn page: website, industry, companySize, headquarters, linkedinCompanyUrl.

From Companies House: companyNumber, registeredName, companyStatus, companyType, incorporationDate, companyAgeYears, registeredAddress, registeredPostcode, sicCodes, sicDescriptions, directors (current ones: name, role, appointment date), activeDirectorCount, otherPossibleCompanies, companiesHouseUrl.

How sure the match is: companiesHouseMatch, activityMatchesIndustry, headquartersInRegisteredAddress, dormantCompany.

No phone numbers and no emails: neither LinkedIn's public pages nor Companies House publish them, and this Actor does not guess them.

How the Companies House match works, and how good it is

LinkedIn shows a brand ("Waitrose & Partners"). Companies House registers companies ("WAITROSE LIMITED"). The Actor compares the core of the name, without the legal form, and then checks the company's SIC activity against the industry on its LinkedIn page.

• exact: the registered name is the brand's name and its activity fits the industry. Tesco → TESCO PLC, Next → NEXT PLC.
• probable: the brand plus a word groups use for their companies (UK, Group, Holdings, Retail, Stores...), or an exact name whose registered activity does not fit the LinkedIn industry, or a dormant company. GXO Logistics → GXO LOGISTICS UK LIMITED.
• not_found: no live UK company with that name. Delivered free.
• public_body: NHS trusts, councils, universities, embassies. Not in Companies House. Free.

Measured on 17 October 2026 on 278 real companies: 124 exact, 67 probable, 80 not found, 7 public bodies.

The activity check exists because a one-word brand can share its name with an unrelated company: "Morrisons" (Retail) matched MORRISONS LIMITED, a firm of solicitors in Swindon. On that sample the check flagged 18 matches. About 11 were the wrong company. The rest were the right company with an unusual registered activity, such as a parts retailer registered as management consultancy. That is why a flagged match is marked probable instead of being dropped.

headquartersInRegisteredAddress is information, not a verdict. Large groups often register their company in another city. In the sample, 9 out of 10 matches whose headquarters town was not in the registered address were still the right company.

Big groups have many companies. The Actor picks the live one whose name fits best and lists the others in otherPossibleCompanies.

Speed, limits, said plainly

• LinkedIn shows 10 jobs per page and its public listing stops at about 1,000 jobs per search. It slows down bursts of requests. The Actor waits and carries on: 29 slowdowns on 63 pages in the run above, all recovered.
• Companies House is a public service and is read gently, with a pause between requests that grows if it asks to slow down. The 278-company run took 16 minutes, most of it waiting politely for Companies House. A 50-job run took 2 minutes 22 seconds.
• LinkedIn's public job cards carry no salary, so there is no salary field.
• LinkedIn mixes in jobs from other countries. Only jobs located in the UK are kept.

---

Pricing

Pay per company found in Companies House (company event). Companies not found and public bodies are delivered without charge, marked so you can drop them with onlyMatched. Companies are checked in order of open jobs, so a capped run keeps the biggest hirers.
