Job fairies to follow in 2024

In the vast digital landscape of professional networking during and in-between the COVID-19 lockdowns, a whimsical breed of LinkedIn users emerged, called "job fairies." These benevolent individuals dedicate their time and effort to sharing employment opportunities, particularly in the realm of social impact and purpose-driven work.

Job fairies are modern-day career cupids, using the power of social media to connect talented professionals with organizations aligned with their values and aspirations. They scour the internet for open positions, curate job listings, and share them across their networks, casting a wide net to increase visibility and accessibility.

For those seeking meaningful work that creates positive change, following the right job fairies (and their posts) can be a game-changer. Here's a list of influential social impact job fairies (individuals and organisations) worth keeping an eye on (in alphabetical order):
