Working in Birmingham
Employment Landscape
The Birmingham job market as of early 2026 shows a mixed but realistic picture for job seekers. The healthcare sector continues to provide substantial openings, with major employers such as UAB Hospital, Children’s of Alabama, Regions Financial, Blue Cross Blue Shield, Protective Life, Walmart, AT&T, and Mercedes‑Benz anchoring employment in the region. Construction and professional services are showing momentum too, with Brasfield & Gorrie completing a headquarters expansion that generated 64 new jobs and plans for 85 over five years. Meanwhile, emerging industries and smaller firms—especially those in fintech, AI, and logistics—are beginning to contribute meaningfully, with startups like NewMIGO and Occupi gaining traction and new facilities being developed by Truckworx and RPI Construction Rentals. Job seekers therefore face a layered market, with stability in traditional sectors and emerging though still competitive opportunities in tech and entrepreneurial ventures.

Typical Roles
Hiring Patterns
Healthcare and construction roles remain the most consistent sources of hiring due to large local institutions and ongoing infrastructure investment. The fintech and startup space is growing, but competition for limited openings is real. Logistics and airport‑related jobs are emerging thanks to airport expansion projects.
"In Birmingham you often choose between steady roles in healthcare or construction and a handful of riskier yet innovative openings in tech—you have to pick your lane and be realistic about where your skills matter."
