Working in Belfast
Employment Landscape
Job seekers in Belfast right now face a mix of opportunity and caution. The aerospace sector, anchored by the historic Short Brothers factory, is in flux following Airbus’s acquisition of Spirit AeroSystems operations, which may safeguard 1,500 jobs but leaves around 2,000 posts tied to non-Airbus work uncertain. This has sparked union-led calls for government action. The tech firm Kainos, while profitable overall, has cut nearly 200 roles due to delayed client projects, though it is also building a new city centre headquarters slated for completion by early 2027. On a brighter note, the financial services sector is expanding. Bank of America is launching operations in Belfast, projecting up to 1,000 new jobs. Meanwhile, the local job vacancy market shows strength: listings in manufacturing, engineering, and social care have rebounded sharply, and overall listings remain significantly above pre-pandemic levels. Construction of new office space remains limited, though plans are underway for waterfront housing, energy, and regeneration projects tied to Belfast Harbour’s £90 million investment. Overall job seekers will find pockets of demand—but many roles carry uncertainty, and competition remains strong.
Dominant Industries
Typical Roles
Hiring Patterns
Hiring is most active in manufacturing, engineering, and health and social care, where listings have jumped quarter on quarter. Financial services are growing too, with new operations opening. Aerospace is unstable amid restructuring and tech may pause hiring amid client delays. Construction is steady around specific regeneration and port-linked projects.
"In Belfast right now you are trying to outcompete in growing sectors while bracing for instability in others — steady opportunity sits side by side with real uncertainty."
