Working in Croatia
Croatia is the EU's newest member with rapidly growing demand in tourism, construction and food processing along the Adriatic coast. A combined work-and-residence permit is processed in 4 to 8 weeks; some sectors qualify for fast-track arrangements. Cost of living sits below the EU average; coastal cities (Split, Zadar) are pricier than inland (Osijek, Karlovac). A smaller but growing migrant-worker presence, with Croatian language support increasingly available at industrial sites.
What this role looks like day-to-day
A normal day moves between picking orders against a hand-scanner, packing them on labelled pallets, and operating a low-level forklift or pallet jack. Modern warehouses are climate-controlled and most picking is done within walking distance of your station. This role suits workers comfortable on their feet, with steady hand-eye coordination, and an ability to maintain accuracy as the picking pace builds toward end-of-shift cutoffs.

Basic English (A2) — language courses available on-site
Mediterranean coast, continental interior. Worker accommodation is centrally heated. Croatia has growing migrant-worker communities, especially in industrial cities. Free time activities, religious facilities, halal/vegetarian food access — these vary by city and CHI Recruiting briefs every worker pre-departure.
For this specific role: Basic English (A2) — language courses available on-site. Most multinational plants run in English on the floor with simplified communication and pictogram safety signs. Free or subsidised on-site language classes are common after month 1.
Forklift or pallet-jack certification is paid by the employer and is typically completed within the first 2-4 weeks. Workers without certification still pick orders manually until certified — pay is the same.
No prior experience is required for this position. Paid on-the-job training runs through your first 2-4 weeks at the plant, after which you operate independently with periodic supervision. Workers from any blue-collar background adapt smoothly.
Processing typically runs 4-8 weeks once your documents are in order (passport, education attestation, police clearance, medical fitness). CHI Recruiting handles the employer-side application; the worker pays government fees (medical, embassy, document chain) which are disclosed transparently up front.
Salary is €2,100-2,310/month. Contract is 1 year renewable. This intake covers 33 placements. Most contracts in our partner network include shared accommodation, meals on shift, work uniform and PPE — confirmed on the offer letter.
