<div dir="ltr">Demand for Linux professionals in Europe is on the rise, with developers and system administrators at the top of the list. But hiring managers are struggling to find the talent they need, according to European figures released today from The 2014 Linux Jobs Report.<br>
<br>The survey, produced by The Linux Foundation, the nonprofit organisation dedicated to supporting the growth of Linux and collaborative development and Dice Holdings, which provides career sites for technology professionals in Europe with The IT Job Board and Dice in the U.S., is based on data from both hiring managers and Linux professionals. It found 87% of European hiring managers have "hiring Linux talent" on their list of priorities for 2014 and almost half (48%) plan to increase their hires of Linux professionals over the next six months, as compared to the previous six months. Yet 93% are having difficulty finding professionals with the Linux skills they require. Of those unable to fill open positions, 25% have delayed projects as a result.<div>
