Escape the City Scraper: Purpose-Driven UK Jobs

Extract UK purpose-driven job listings from Escape the City (escapethecity.org). Returns 30+ fields per row: title, employer, salary, location, cause, workplace type, B-Corp / Top-1% / visa-sponsor flags, benefits, plus employer website, about text, hero image and other open roles. Pay per result.

What You Get

• bcorp / top1percent_employer: Boolean flags for B-Corp certified and Escape Top-1% Certified employers -- applied by Escape's editorial team, not inferred, and not available anywhere else
• cause: Escape's own SDG-inspired cause taxonomy (Sustainable consumption, Climate action, Reducing inequalities, etc.) -- the filter that sets this board apart from generalist boards
• escape_factor: Array of culture signals like ["Socially impactful", "People-first culture", "Small and unique"] assigned by Escape's team
• benefits: Structured employer benefit list (Pet friendly, Paid sabbatical, Enhanced maternity, Home office budget, etc.)
• visa_sponsor: Boolean flag for UK visa-sponsoring employers -- immediately useful for international candidates and recruiters
• company_about / company_website / company_active_jobs: Employer profile data from Escape's organisation pages when includeCompanyDetails: true

Who Should Use This

This actor is the specialist tool for ESG-focused recruiters, ethical job aggregators, and B-Corp ecosystem researchers. Escape the City is one of the few boards where every listing is vetted for mission alignment -- the B-Corp flag, Top-1% Employer certification, cause taxonomy, and benefits list are editorial signals applied by Escape's team and cannot be reproduced from generalist boards. Sustainability-sector HR teams use the visa_sponsor flag to surface roles open to international candidates. Employer-brand researchers use the deep employer mode to map every Escape-certified company's website, about text, and full open-role list in a single run.
