CrawlJobs, a job discovery startup, has raised £2.2 million in funding from angels. CrawlJobs said the new capital will support the expansion of its job discovery infrastructure and help accelerate the rollout of additional products within its broader HR and education ecosystem.
Founded in 2024, CrawlJobs was created to address a visibility gap in online recruitment. While many candidates search through traditional job boards, a significant share of job openings is published only on official employer career pages and does not reach broader visibility through conventional job discovery channels.
The platform continuously monitors employer websites and structures job listings using crawling and classification systems. By collecting vacancies directly from where they are first published, it aims to improve the speed, coverage, and relevance of job discovery across multiple countries, industries, and language versions.
CrawlJobs currently operates in around 20 language versions as part of an international growth strategy. The company says its long-term objective is to build a scalable global layer for job discovery that combines direct-from-employer listings with broader employment tools.
The funding round was backed by senior executives with international operating backgrounds across consumer goods, healthcare, construction materials, and renewable energy organisations including Unilever, Avon, Roche, Holcim, Reckitt, and SSE Renewables.
Alongside the funding announcement, CrawlJobs highlighted its acceptance into Microsoft for Startups Founders Hub. Through the programme, it has received $150,000 in Microsoft Azure and development support, with Microsoft committing up to $400,000 in marketplace onboarding and go-to-market support value.
The platform operates as part of a wider technology group that also includes IT Flashcards, a platform focused on learning and skills development for software professionals, and AllDevBlogs, a global aggregation platform for independent developer content. Across its wider HR and education ecosystem, the group is building more than a dozen products spanning recruitment, workforce infrastructure, online learning, training, and skills development.
Our mission is to make the global job market more visible and easier to access. Too many opportunities remain fragmented across employer websites and never reach enough candidates through conventional channels. We are building infrastructure that helps close that gap at scale.
