<p>If you want to maximise hourly pay rather than total hours, some part-time jobs in Malta pay two to three times more than others. Here is what to aim for in 2025.</p>
<h2>Minimum wage and baseline</h2>
<p>The national minimum wage in Malta for 2025 is around €4.75/hr for adults. Most part-time roles pay above this — the cheapest hospitality roles start around €7/hr.</p>
<h2>Jobs paying €10–€15/hr part-time</h2>
<h3>iGaming customer support</h3>
<p>Multilingual support agents earn €10–€14/hr on part-time contracts, with shift premiums for nights and weekends.</p>
<h3>IT and tech support</h3>
<p>Helpdesk and junior dev part-time roles pay €12–€18/hr depending on skills.</p>
<h3>Private tutoring</h3>
<p>One-on-one tutoring in maths, sciences or English commands €15–€30/hr — the single best-paid part-time work on the island.</p>
<h3>Finance and admin</h3>
<p>Bookkeeping and accounts-assistant work for small firms pays €10–€15/hr if you have a basic qualification.</p>
<h2>Jobs paying €7–€10/hr</h2>
<ul>
<li>Hospitality (waiters, bartenders, baristas)</li>
<li>Retail and merchandising</li>
<li>Reception and front-of-house</li>
<li>General admin</li>
</ul>
<h2>How to negotiate better pay</h2>
<ul>
<li>Wait for the offer before discussing salary</li>
<li>Quote a range, not a single number — anchor on the upper end of market</li>
<li>Stress availability that matches their peak demand (evenings, weekends, public holidays)</li>
<li>Mention a second language if you have one — worth €1–€2/hr in iGaming and hospitality</li>
</ul>
<h2>Benefits beyond salary</h2>
<p>Don''t just look at the hourly rate. Free meals, transport allowance, gym membership, paid training, and tips can add 20–40% to your effective income — especially in hospitality and iGaming.</p>
