Sales Skills Demand in UK Vacancies
Sales appears in 506 of 3,957 vacancies in the Job Matches dataset (13%). Job Matches vacancy dataset as of 30 October 2026 at 04:56. Sample size 506 meets the 40-vacancy threshold.
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.
389 of the Sales vacancies are still active (14% of active vacancies in this dataset).
Other labour-market statistics
External statistics are collected separately from the Job Matches vacancy dataset and are not added to those totals.
No labelled external snapshot has been saved yet. An admin refresh writes ONS, NOMIS, Adzuna, Reed, Arbeitnow, NHS and watched ATS board figures without mixing them into candidate matches.

Questions
- What does Job Matches currently observe for Sales demand in the Job Matches dataset?
- Job Matches vacancy dataset as of 30 October 2026 at 04:56. This slice contains 506 of 3,957 unique vacancies in the Job Matches dataset (13%). 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.
