You appear to be confusing "number of jobs advertised in Jobcentres" with "number of jobs available" - they are not the same thing.
For example, my previous place of work has 36 jobs on its job-site - only 7 of those are in the Jobcentre as well; and that doesn't include the estimated 60% of all vacancies that are never advertised - Guardian.
According to the Federation of Small Businesses

In 2002, the Office of National Statistics (ONS) estimated that only 44 per cent of all job vacancies are advertised through Jobcentre Plus. The FSB’s data suggests this figure is far lower for small businesses vacancies.
