The Marbella Job Fair will be held on March 5th with 120 company stands.

The Marbella City Council will celebrate the eighth edition of the Job Fair on March 5, 2026, at the Adolfo Suárez Congress Palace, an event that will feature 120 company stands and is expected to exceed the attendance of 5,000 people and 2,000 job offers, as reported this Wednesday by the sector advisor, Alejandro Freijo.

This was highlighted by the municipal official at the event presentation, where he emphasized that the fair “will once again bring together hundreds of companies, entities, and individuals with the common goal of creating real and quality employment opportunities.”

The Job Fair will be held as every year at the Adolfo Suárez Congress Palace, from 09:00 to 18:00 hours, and entry and participation will be free for companies and visitors, he mentioned.

As specified, the Job Fair will feature “120 stands of local, national, and international companies and entities,” in addition to “talks about the jobs of the future, artificial intelligence, and entrepreneurship.” The event will also include “live interviews and various practical workshops,” he added.

The Employment Advisor highlighted the figures achieved in this 2025 edition - with the expectation of surpassing them next year-; in which “120 stands with about 5,000 participants and 2,000 job offers” took part, in addition to “workshops, interviews, and a very dynamic atmosphere of networking and learning” that will be repeated in 2026.

“The numbers reflect a reality, and that is that Marbella not only generates employment in the summer but throughout the year, and that is why we organize this eighth Job Fair in March, so that interested companies have enough time to organize after Christmas and start incorporating all the workers they need for the high season,” he remarked.

Freijo highlighted the annual meeting's goals of “bringing employment and training closer to all attendees” and “giving visibility to sectors with high demand in everything related to tourism, the service sector, construction, new technologies, or sustainability.” Additionally, the event aims to “facilitate the processes of direct staff selection” and “promote entrepreneurship and employability.”

Unemployment Data

On the other hand, the advisor highlighted the unemployment data from November in Marbella with 7,172 registered individuals, which represents a decrease of 702 unemployed compared to the previous year, although he noted that compared to October, the city has seen a “slight increase” in unemployment by 81 job seekers. He attributed this movement to “the gradual end of the high season.”

Also, he pointed out that the number of hirings in November saw “an increase of 11.6%,” with a total of “4,076 labor contracts made,” which in Freijo’s words “shows a business activity and a labor market that continue to grow, even out of season.”

“In Marbella, we not only want there to be more employment, but also better, more stable, more qualified, and with more future for our residents,” highlighted the municipal official, who stressed the City Council's commitment to this event to bring job opportunities closer to the citizens and facilitate the “direct connection” between companies and job seekers.

Thus, he informed that companies interested in participating in the Job Fair can send an email to feriadeempleo@marbella.es, while individuals who wish to attend to apply for the job offers that will be available at the event, change jobs, or improve them can get their free ticket on the ‘Enterticket’ platform.
