    And after changing my search terms in Google to "SQL Server get job name from sp_who2 program_name" instead of something more generic, I HAVE FOUND IT!

    CONVERT(VARCHAR(34),master.dbo.fn_VarbinToHexStr(sj.Job_ID))

    Be careful here, the function fn_VarbinToHexStr is an old relic with some rather ugly code, I would not use it in any production code.

    Eirikur, I ended up using Kaj's solution, which didn't require the function.
