Default Count of different occurances

Hi,
I've been looking to see if anyone else had a similiar query but can't find
it on this excellent resource so hoping someone can help please.

I have got two variables and am trying to count the number of different
occurances within each. To demonstrate I have detailed an example below:

Company Jobe Code
ASB AD200
ASB AD200
MHB AD100
MHB AD200
SQ AD200
etc. (to 10,000 lines of data)

There are several other columns.
On a seperate tab on the same spreadsheet I have listed all the job codes

AD100
AD200
etc

I know need to count the number of companies that have that particular role,
so for the above example, for job code AD200, the answer I'd like is 3 NOT 4
which is the number of time it appears. I would normally do a pivot table but
need this to fit into a table of numbers which will be linked to a mail merge
so want to keep it streamlined. Also does it matter that the Company appears
before the job code?

Hope that makes sense

Appreciate your help.
Thanks
