Welcome to the WeCovr UK Job Market Visualiser, an interactive tool designed to help you understand the future of your profession. Using comprehensive data from the National Careers Service and ONS, we've mapped out over 400 UK occupations to give you a clear, visual snapshot of the modern workforce.
Check your AI job risk and automation vulnerability
The working world is changing rapidly. Our visualiser allows you to drill down into specific sectors and uncover vital insights about your career path.
Digital AI Exposure: Discover how susceptible your specific role is to artificial intelligence and emerging digital trends.
Automation Potential: See the likelihood of your daily tasks being automated in the coming years.
Relative Income & Health Pressure: Explore how physical and financial pressures may vary across occupations, which may be relevant when thinking about financial resilience.
Median Pay & Growth Outlook: Compare your earning potential and job security against the national average.
Understand the protection context
Once you've explored how your profession compares on AI exposure, automation, and relative health and income pressure, you can calculate a Protection Score to explore where gaps may exist in your current setup.
At WeCovr, we help UK professionals explore income protection, life insurance, and private health cover. Use the data as a starting point for understanding your career's landscape and the kinds of protection questions you may want to consider.
Data note and inspiration
This UK version was inspired by Andrej Karpathy's US job-market-visualiser and adapted for UK occupations using National Careers Service and ONS-linked labour-market data.

FAQs
What does the UK Job Market Visualiser show?
It maps 400+ UK occupations and lets you compare job size, pay, growth outlook, digital AI exposure, automation potential, and protection-relevant health and income pressures.
How should I interpret AI exposure and automation potential?
They are directional indicators that help you compare roles. Higher values suggest more exposure to digital change or repeatable tasks that may be affected by AI, software, or process automation.
Why are income and health vulnerability shown together?
They help connect labour-market risk to real-world protection needs. A role can face both earnings disruption and higher absence risk, which matters when considering income protection or faster treatment access.
What should I do after checking my occupation?
Use the visualiser to understand your role's pressure points, then calculate your Protection Score if you want to explore whether your current arrangements may leave gaps for your circumstances.
