I really considered having a summary of each job free members see and then one paid members see. I may go back to that.

Perhaps the summary could be automated and be based on keywords like the experience needed, location, salary etc. That might be enough to give someone the gist and get them to pay.
Right now though, I'd rewrite the current job posts on there so they're unique.
One quick potential problem I've found: it's easy to find out who the job is for by searching for a sentence from their post and finding other places they've posted.
I'm not sure how you're going to find a way around that unless you only show a unique summary of each post—enough to give a flavour and entice the signup, but not enough to give away who the job is for.
Or perhaps I'm just tight and others will be happy to pay for conveniences sake.
