About English Jobs Italy

There are plenty of job boards in Italy. Almost all of them assume you speak Italian fluently. English Jobs Italy is the opposite: every listing on the board has been verified by an AI judge as one where Italian is not required. If you're an international student, a Master's graduate, or an expat professional who speaks English but not Italian, you can apply without guessing.

Who it's for

  • International students & Master's graduates — looking for internships, part-time roles alongside studies, or your first full-time position in Italy after graduation.
  • Expats & professionals — relocating to Italy or already there, wanting roles where English is the working language.
  • Remote workers — Italy-based or considering it, targeting companies that operate internationally.

Where our listings come from

We aggregate jobs from several established employment data providers, each covering a different segment of the Italian and remote job market:

  • Adzuna Italy — a UK-based job search engine that indexes thousands of Italian employer career pages and recruitment agencies. Provides broad coverage of corporate and SME roles across all sectors.
  • JSearch — aggregates from Google Jobs and LinkedIn postings, capturing listings from multinational employers operating in Italy.
  • Jobicy — a remote-jobs board listing fully-remote roles at international companies, many open to applicants based in Italy.
  • RemoteOK — one of the largest remote-work boards, strong on tech, engineering, and startup roles that accept candidates anywhere, including Italy.
  • Remotive — specialises in remote-first positions at international companies, many of which accept applicants based in Italy.

Combined, these sources surface roles from employers including multinationals (Amazon, Baker Hughes, Luxottica), Italian corporates (Enel, Pirelli, Generali), fast-growing startups, international NGOs, and academic institutions. We ingest new listings every three hours and remove expired roles daily.

AI verification methodology

Every listing undergoes a structured classification pipeline before it reaches the public board. Here is exactly how it works:

  1. Ingestion & deduplication — Raw listings are fetched from all four sources every three hours. A SHA-256 hash of the normalised title, company name, and city prevents duplicates from appearing.
  2. AI language classification — Each listing is sent to Google's Gemini 2.5 Flash Lite model running on Vertex AI. The model reads the full job description and checks for explicit Italian-language requirements: phrases like “madrelingua italiana”, “ottimo italiano”, “C1/C2 italiano richiesto”, “fluent Italian required”, and hundreds of variations in both Italian and English.
  3. Confidence scoring — The model returns a confidence score between 0% and 100%. Only listings scoring ≥75% are published to the board. Listings between 50% and 75% are held for a second classification pass. Below 50% are rejected.
  4. Metadata extraction — Alongside classification, the AI extracts structured data: seniority level (junior/mid/senior), work model (remote/hybrid/onsite), contract type, salary range, key skills, and industry sector. This powers the filters and the sidebar on each job page.
  5. Description enrichment — Some source APIs return truncated descriptions (~500 characters). For these, a second AI pass rewrites the snippet into a clear, well-structured job description in Markdown, using only information present in the original — never inventing requirements or benefits.
  6. Ongoing validation — A scheduled job checks every application URL every 30 minutes and flags broken links. Stale listings (not seen at source for 48+ hours) show a warning banner. Expired roles are purged daily.

The classification pipeline processes roughly 200–400 new listings per day. Of these, approximately 40–60% pass the English-friendly threshold. All AI processing runs on Google Cloud infrastructure in European regions — no listing data is shared with third parties.

What's different about this site

  • AI classification runs on managed cloud infrastructure — your personal data never leaves European servers.
  • All features are free forever, including saved jobs and email alerts.
  • No dark patterns, no forced sign-ups for basic search. Browse all verified listings without creating an account.

Editorial standards

Every listing on the public board has passed the AI classification pipeline described above. We do not pay sources, and we do not accept payment from employers to feature their roles higher in results — ranking is purely chronological by posting date. No listing is “sponsored” or “promoted” for a fee.

Our editorial content — the city pages, role pages, and the full library of guides on working and living in Italy — is written and edited by the publisher, drawing on first-hand experience of relocating to and working in Italy as a non-Italian speaker. We update guides as rules and the job market change, and revise city pages when local hiring conditions shift materially (a new major employer arrives, a regional law changes, etc.). Guides on bureaucracy and immigration point readers to the official Italian authorities to confirm current requirements, because rules vary by region and individual circumstances.

How we make money

The site is free to browse and free to use. We cover our hosting and API costs through two channels:

  • Display advertising via Google AdSense. Ads are clearly labelled and never injected into job-listing text. We do not run pop-ups, auto-play video, or interstitials.
  • Job alert subscriptions — daily email digests of new verified listings matching your criteria. Free forever.

We do not sell personal data. We do not run affiliate links on listings. Read the full privacy policy.

Founder & ownership

English Jobs Italy was built by Abdalrahman Fouda, a software engineer based in Italy. After experiencing firsthand how difficult it is to find English-friendly roles as a non-Italian speaker, he built this platform to solve the problem for other international students, graduates, and expats in the same situation.

The project is independently owned and operated — it is not affiliated with, sponsored by, or endorsed by any job board, employer, recruitment agency, or government body. All infrastructure (hosting, AI processing, database) runs on European cloud providers (Google Cloud, Vercel, Supabase).
