Anticipated Job Openings and Recruitment Drives

The employment landscape for 2026 is shaped by global trends, and City Overseas Employment Services is at the forefront of identifying these vacancies. We anticipate substantial hiring in the healthcare sector, particularly for registered nurses with ICU or oncology experience bound for the UK and Ireland, as well as medical laboratory technologists for leading hospitals in the UAE. The construction boom in Qatar and Saudi Arabia will drive demand for certified civil engineers, site managers, and HVAC specialists for giga-project developments. Furthermore, the digital transformation across all industries continues to fuel needs for software developers proficient in Python and cloud architecture, cybersecurity analysts, and data scientists, with many roles offering remote or hybrid work options from countries like Portugal and the Netherlands.

Our recruitment calendar for the year is already scheduled with quarterly, sector-specific virtual and in-person job fairs. The first major drive in March 2026 will target hospitality and facility management professionals for integrated resort projects in Singapore and the Mediterranean. We maintain direct contracts with over 200 international employers, which allows us to list exclusive job openings not advertised on public boards. Candidates are advised to complete our comprehensive skills registration on our website to be matched automatically with relevant vacancies as they are secured by our placement officers. This proactive approach ensures that the most qualified individuals are the first to be considered for these competitive overseas positions.
