Germany needs skilled workers in many fields. This page lists jobs in Germany from employers in Berlin, Munich, Frankfurt, Hamburg and other cities, including English speaking jobs, IT jobs, engineering jobs and roles for international applicants.

Germany offers several routes for foreign workers, including the EU Blue Card for qualified professionals and the Opportunity Card (Chancenkarte), a points based visa that lets you look for work in Germany. Check the official Make it in Germany website for current rules, and note that German language skills help in many roles.

Industries hiring in Germany

Automotive, mechanical engineering, chemicals, IT, healthcare and logistics are major employers. Munich and Stuttgart are strong in engineering, Frankfurt in finance and Berlin in tech startups.

Many medium sized manufacturing companies in smaller towns also hire engineers and skilled workers.

Skilled worker immigration

Germany's Skilled Immigration Act opened routes for professionals with recognised qualifications, and the recognition of foreign degrees and vocational training is an important first step.

The official Anerkennung in Deutschland portal explains how to get a qualification recognised.

Working culture and contracts

Employment contracts usually include paid leave above the legal minimum and a probation period of up to six months.
