Good to know
Open Job Market is built around local work, so the jobs you see are near you — not across the county.
Cars account for 76% of passenger travel distance in England, and road transport produces 89% of the UK's domestic transport greenhouse-gas emissions — so shorter, local trips add up.
Sources: UK Department for Transport — National Travel Survey and road traffic statistics; UK Department for Energy Security & Net Zero — 2024 provisional greenhouse-gas figures. “Open Job Market data” is the mean straight-line distance between a tradesperson's registered location and the job they selected. Figures are indicative, not a guarantee of savings on any individual job.
Nothing here commits you to work you haven't seen.
