Top Job Titles and Occupations in Shortage in Europe Within Transport, Postal and Warehousing
The European transportation and storage sector continues to experience recruitment challenges across several occupations. Growing freight volumes, expanding e-commerce activities, an ageing workforce and changing technical requirements are increasing the demand for qualified and experienced employees.
The European Labour Authority’s EURES research identifies drivers and mobile plant operators as an important shortage occupation group. Its 2024 sector analysis also highlights recruitment difficulties involving motor vehicle mechanics, aircraft mechanics, parcel delivery workers, distribution managers and other specialised positions.
Below are some of the important job titles and occupations facing labour shortages in European markets, together with short descriptions of their responsibilities.

Important: Understanding European Labour Shortages
The occupations above represent a combination of documented shortage occupations and specialised roles facing recruitment challenges in different European markets. Not all of these positions are in shortage in every country.
According to the European Labour Authority’s EURES 2024 research:
- Drivers and mobile plant operators are a widespread shortage occupation group in transportation and storage, with particularly significant recruitment difficulties in land transport.
- Motor vehicle mechanics and repairers were reported in shortage in 16 European countries.
- Aircraft engine mechanics and repairers were reported in shortage in nine countries.
- Messengers, package deliverers and luggage porters were reported in shortage in seven countries.
- Supply, distribution and related managers were reported in shortage in six countries.
- Air traffic controllers and specialised aviation technicians also face recruitment difficulties in certain national markets.
The report also identifies a surplus of general freight handlers in many European countries. This demonstrates why employers should assess recruitment demand at national and regional levels rather than assume that every logistics or warehouse occupation is experiencing a Europe-wide shortage.
Eurostat’s occupational vacancy research further identified transport and storage labourers among the occupations experiencing one of the largest increases in vacancy rates between 2019 and 2023, indicating increased recruitment pressure.
For employers, these findings highlight the importance of effective workforce planning and access to additional international talent.
