Greece is identifying the top 15 future jobs for Gen Z as part of a government-led initiative to align education with market demands. A Labor Ministry study highlights four key areas expected to dominate job creation: tourism and hospitality, information and communication technology, renewable energy, and agri-food tech.
The initiative aims to provide high school students with data-driven career guidance. The General Directorate of Labor Relations has analyzed employment trends using data from Greece’s Ergani employment system, the social security fund EFKA, and tax authorities.
The findings indicate rising demand for data analysts, cybersecurity experts, virtual reality specialists, and business intelligence professionals. The tourism sector, which contributes 25.4% of GDP, is also evolving, creating new roles in digital marketing and management.
Greece’s renewable energy push is expected to generate thousands of jobs.
