The new year is a time when many start thinking about getting a job, possibly changing careers or making plans for a future move

According to the Spanish site El Economista, 2023 isn’t looking like it’s going to be a great year for employment in general, due to the current economic situation around the world and the fact that big tech companies in the US have already started to lay off some of their employees. 

Despite this, there has been an upward growth trend in certain careers and positions in some industries, and the professional business network, LinkedIn has listed 25 jobs that it believes will be in demand in Spain in 2023.

According to LinkedIn, out of this list, the ones involved in the cybersecurity, sales, logistics, financial and sustainability sectors are the ones with the most professional opportunities heading into 2023.
