Thanks @elliot for the reply.

I believe I’ve solved it. I’ve used the below to do what I need, not sure if there is a cleaner way though:

<ul>
<?php	
$args = array( 
	'post_type' => 'job_sectors',
	'post_status' => 'publish',
	'order'    => 'ASC',
	'orderby'	=> 'name'
);
$loop = new WP_Query( $args );
while ( $loop->have_posts() ) : $loop->the_post();

?>			
	<li><a href="<?php echo get_permalink($pageChild->ID);?>" title="<?php the_title(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?><?php #the_ID(); ?></a>	
	<?php
	global $post;
	$args = array(
		'post_type' => 'jobs',
		'meta_query' => array(
			array(
				'key' => 'job_sector',
				'value' => get_the_ID(),
				'compare' => 'LIKE'
			)
		)
	);
	
	$myposts = get_posts( $args );
	$total = 0;
	foreach( $myposts as $post ) : 
	$total = $total + $post; 
	?>
	
	<?php endforeach; 
	wp_reset_postdata(); 
	echo "($total)"; 
	?>
	</li>

<?php endwhile; ?>			
</ul>

Thanks
