Looking for a hot new job for the new year?
How does "head of revenue operations," sound? Or what about "sales enablement specialist?" Or even "truck driver?"
These roles are among the fastest-growing in the US, according to LinkedIn's newly published 2023 Jobs on the Rise list. LinkedIn's list, which the networking platform compiled using job-growth rates from the start of January 2018 to the end of July 2022, is based on its data from members.
Andrew McCaskill, a LinkedIn career expert, told Insider that the pandemic gave people new perspectives on their professional lives.
"People now think of their jobs as vehicles, not the destination," he said. "They want the job that's in front of them to get them where they want to be long term."
That's why jobseekers are getting more strategic and looking for roles that have momentum and are in demand in the job market. Indeed, many of the jobs on this list have grown directly because of the pandemic's effect on the economy and the workplace, according to McCaskill.
For instance, HR functions, including "human resources analytics manager," and "employee experience manager," occupy three of the top eight spots.
"A lot of jobs on this list are ones that help companies do more with less," he said. "HR is indispensable as employers are trying to meet the demands of their workers."
Below are the titles that made the top of the US list with information from the new report. The salary range for each title, when available, comes from LinkedIn.
