According to EURES (February 2025), the occupational groups with the biggest shortages in Malta are:
The sectors with the highest job vacancy rates are mining and quarrying (6.4%), information and communication (4.5%), accommodation and food services (3.9%) and professional, scientific and technical activities (3.5%).
Because there are so few jobseekers, employers increasingly rely on workers from abroad. For graduates, this points to IT, business and professional services; hotels and restaurants also offer casual and summer work, which you can filter for on the Jobsplus vacancy portal.
Key figures: Eurostat (population on 1 January 2026; unemployment and employment rates 2025; minimum wages July 2026); for the United Kingdom – Office for National Statistics; for Liechtenstein – national statistics.
