3 European tech companies that are hiring right now

With tech layoffs coming thick and fast at the moment––this week both PayPal and HubSpot announced job cuts––the wider macroeconomic climate is having a knock-on effect on the stock prices and cash reserves of some of the world’s biggest technology firms. 

However, there is still plenty of positive news to focus on. Deloitte says the European technology industry is an essential economic factor for the bloc. It represents sales of €1.5 trillion and accounts for more than 8% of European economic output. Deloitte also estimates that until the end of this decade, the sector will increase by more than 5% every year.

The European tech scene is rapidly growing and becoming more and more competitive globally. European startups have raised a significant amount of capital in recent years and are making advancements in a number of areas such as fintech, artificial intelligence (AI), and e-commerce. 

The region has produced several successful tech unicorns such as Skype, Spotify, and TransferWise, and the number of unicorns here is only expected to grow. Additionally, the EU has taken steps to foster a supportive environment for tech companies, such as the Digital Single Market initiative, which aims to break down barriers to online commerce. 

Overall, the European tech scene is performing well and looks set to continue that growth and innovation into the future. Recent Pitchbook data indicates that ​​the UK attracted the largest amount of investment of any European country last year; Switzerland’s VC share increased too, with €3.8 billion invested versus €3.6 billion in 2021, and France saw an 18.4% increase in deal value as well.

While layoffs have impacted areas such as recruitment, marketing, and sales, plenty of roles are in growth. These include data science; AI; cloud computing; cybersecurity and full-stack web development.
