Thousands of jobs across Europe are open right now, and companies can’t fill them fast enough. Farms, factories, trucking firms and construction sites in Lithuania, Finland, Luxembourg and Romania are actively looking for workers from abroad — and many of them will guide you through the visa process too.
If you are thinking about working in Europe, this is a good moment to look. Here’s what’s open, where, and how you can join.
Why these 4 countries are hiring foreigners in 2026
Across Northern and Central Europe, there just aren’t enough local workers for physical, hands-on jobs. Farms need people during harvest season. Delivery companies need riders. Truck fleets need licensed drivers. Construction sites need hands on deck before winter. So instead of leaving these roles empty, employers are opening their doors to international workers and running online hiring events to meet candidates directly — no flights, no agencies standing in the way, and no application fees.
Lithuania: farm work and truck driving jobs
Lithuania has two active hiring pushes right now.
- Farm Working Jobs 2026 — Openings in crop farming, greenhouses, livestock and food production. Both seasonal and full-time roles are available, so this works whether you want short-term income or a longer-term move.
- International Truck Drivers Recruitment Expo — Built specifically for experienced heavy vehicle drivers, with a focus on candidates from the Gulf region. If you already hold a professional driving license, this is one of the more direct paths to a European driving job.
Finland: delivery, wood manufacturing and more
Finland has two hiring events open this month.
- E-Bike & Scooter Delivery Recruitment Expo — Delivery roles across Finland using e-bikes, pedal bikes and light scooters. No driver’s license required, which makes this one of the easiest entry points into the Finnish job market.
- Wood & Manufacturing Jobs Recruitment Expo — Covers production lines, factory work, machinery, packaging and maintenance roles. Good for candidates with industrial or hands-on manufacturing experience.
Luxembourg: construction and building roles
The Construction & Building Recruitment Expo in Luxembourg is a two-part virtual event covering structural building, MEP installation, heavy machinery operation, finishing trades and site management. Luxembourg’s construction sector is one of the highest-paying in the EU, so this is worth a close look if you have trade experience.
Romania: security and asset protection jobs
Romania’s Security Guard & Asset Protection Recruitment Expo is looking for candidates for security and protection roles. It’s a growing sector, and Romania offers a lower cost of living than many Western European countries, which makes it appealing for workers looking to save while they earn.
How the hiring events actually work
These are online recruitment events, so you don’t need to travel to apply:
- Register for the event that matches your skills.
- Get reviewed and, if selected, receive an official invitation with your attendee number.
- Join the online event, meet employers directly, and move forward with interviews and next steps.
You never pay to register or attend. If anyone asks you for money to “guarantee” a spot, that’s not part of this process.
Tools to help you apply
Before you register, it helps to have your paperwork ready:
- Use the Free European-style CV builder to put together a CV that fits what European employers expect.
- Check the European Visa Eligibility Checker to get a sense of your options before you apply.

New events open every few weeks, so the roles above won’t stay open for long. Pick the country and role that fits you, register for the event, and you could be talking to a real employer within days.
