Communication Skills Demand in UK Vacancies

Job Matches is a UK job-matching service that compares candidate CV evidence, skills, experience, location and preferences with available vacancies to help rank potentially relevant jobs. Matching UK vacancies to a candidate CV is the core product. Ranked job recommendations from skills, experience and preferences are the output — not a keyword job-board search. Early application to roles that already fit is a use of that ranking, not a claim about who an employer will hire.
444 of the Communication vacancies are still active (16% of active vacancies in this dataset).

Questions
- What does Job Matches currently observe for Communication demand in the Job Matches dataset?
- Job Matches vacancy dataset as of 30 October 2026 at 04:56. This slice contains 625 of 3,957 unique vacancies in the Job Matches dataset (16%). It is not a UK-wide estimate.
- Can I treat missing salaries as estimated pay?
- No. This slice does not have enough published salary text to report pay, and Job Matches does not estimate the gap.
Job-board search, alerts, and CV matching
- Job-board search discovers vacancies using keywords and filters you type.
- A job alert notifies you when new listings match those same criteria.
- CV matching compares evidence on a CV with vacancy requirements.
- Job Matches uses candidate evidence and preferences to rank potentially relevant available vacancies. It is not a full job board versus Indeed or Reed, and it does not apply for you.
