"Hello, my girlfriend (both 30 years old) and I are thinking about moving to Denmark, as we've seen it mentioned everywhere as a country with many opportunities and a demand for professional skills. I'd like to mention that we are Italians, where over 40 years, salaries have dropped by almost 10%, and with the current lifestyle, it's not enough to live normally. We pay rent, groceries, bills, gasoline, and we almost run out of money. We would like to start a family sooner or later, something that isn't possible in Italy. So, for a guy (me) with 7 years of experience on lathes, grinding machines, and lapping machines, who has worked for Ferrari and Bosch, and holds a diploma as a Full Stack Web Developer, could there be a future? And what about my girlfriend, who has a 3-year bachelor’s degree in economy and finance and works as an accountant?
PS: I’m studying Dutch just because I love foreign languages. I can speak English and French too (B2).

kqd5qlpSo the Schengen area should make the actual move should be pretty straightforward.
In terms of finding employment, we do have major shortage of skilled labour, although most of it is in the service sector (carpenters, electricians etc.) Since much of our heavy industry is gone. Although with your skills I can imagine places they'd be useful, on the basic level, car repair and maintenance, parts manufacturing etc. I'm sure a job that is much more suited to your skills is there, but it might take some searching.
As for your GF, every company needs accounting, I cannot fathom that she wouldn't be able to find work.
I would start looking at and writing companies hiring and see if they would take you, maybe try via JobIndex.dk. language might be the biggest issue, but like 90% of the population speaks English so it depends on the job requirements.
Good luck!
