Here are the top 15+ online platforms to find jobs in Düsseldorf:

Stepstone.de

Stepstone.de is quite a large job search engine in Germany. There are both German-speaking and English-speaking jobs here, and Stepstone may often be the first place companies post.

 

Indeed

Indeed is quite a universal platform for finding jobs. You’ll be sure to find a lot of job opportunities here.

 

XING

XING is like the German version of LinkedIn. It’s a little difficult to navigate at first, but if you can build yourself a profile here, you’ll be sure to find a lot more contacts. You’ll likely have to use your own efforts to ask people if the job requires only English or if you need to know a bit of German as well.

 

glassdoor

glassdoor is widely known as that website that tells you on average how much employees make with certain employers. This is certainly a cool feature, but what many people might not realize is that glassdoor also offers a small selection of English-speaking jobs in Germany.

 

XPAT Jobs

XPAT Jobs offers exactly that… jobs for expats in Germany. While there isn’t as wide of a selection on this site compared to other larger websites, you’ll certainly find English opportunities and most will actually specify whether you require additional German language skills too.

 

LinkedIn

LinkedIn might be more popularly used in North America, but there is a decent number of English-speaking jobs around Düsseldorf that you’ll find here. If you don’t find what you’re looking for, try contacting a recruitment employee who is also on LinkedIn.

 

Jobs.de (aka. JobScout24)

Jobs.de is part of a much larger chain that you might commonly recognize on the internet (including websites like Immobilien24, LoveScout24, and TravelScout24). This particular branch of Scout24 allows you to search for your favorite job. Just type ‘English’ into the job search and you’re good to go!

 

Immigrant Spirit

Immigrant Spirit specializes in recruiting international talent. There are many job opportunities with international companies around Düsseldorf here.

 

ArbeitNow

Arbeitnow is a dedicated English job board that helps find English speakers jobs here in Germany and Europe. The entire interface is in English and it’s quite easy to navigate. It is run by a Berlin-based individual who also created the platform to help expats find specific visa sponsorship jobs, remote jobs, and 4-day work week jobs.

 

Jobs in Dusseldorf

Jobs in Dusseldorf couldn’t be titled any better. This website is geared towards English-speaking professionals in Germany. You’ll be able to narrow your search to contract, permanent and temporary, and how many hours you would like to work.

 

Joblift.de

Joblift is a fairly easy site to navigate and at the moment offers almost 5,000 English-speaking jobs in Düsseldorf. In the left-hand column, you can narrow your search down to specifics. You’ll notice a lot more English-speaking job opportunities here that are different than other search engines.

 

jobrapido

jobrapido is a German-run website but is also relatively easy to navigate. While it’s not the largest platform, every now and again you’ll spot an awesome job opportunity that wasn’t posted anywhere else. It’s always best to rotate through a number of job posting websites so that you’re the first to receive a notification.

 

Jooble

Jooble is a simple-to-use online job platform that is run in the German language when you’re searching for positions within Germany. However, simply type in “English” in the ‘Position’ section and you’ll immediately see a number of English postings in the area. Jooble also visibly shows you the hourly rate or salary if provided by the job poster which can help a ton too.

 

Jobsora

Jobsora is another similar-to-use online platform where you’ll find even more English-language jobs in Düsseldorf. Similar to many other sites, just type in “English” into the “stelle”/position field, and away you go!

 

Jobbird

Jobbird is fun in the German language but yet again, another fantastic place to check for job opportunities around Germany!

 

Tideri

Tideri is a great place to look for English-speaking jobs, especially if you’re looking for something part-time or interactive. A lot of local positions that you might not suspect to be hiring English speakers will be posted here on this site.

👋 Hey, I’m Jenna!

The voice behind Life in Düsseldorf

I’m a German Canadian who moved to Düsseldorf over a decade ago, and like many of you, I had a million questions when I arrived. From trying to figure out how health insurance works in Germany to wondering where the best bakery is (spoiler: it’s Bülle 🍞), I’ve been through it all.

So I created Life in Düsseldorf to help make your transition smoother — whether you’re moving to Germany, already living here, or just curious about life abroad. My mission? To make you feel a little less overwhelmed and a lot more at home.
