Führungskräfte: Nach diesen Profilen suchen deutsche Waffenhersteller

In Germany, the job market is experiencing a crisis with nearly three million people currently unemployed. The Industrial Employment Research Institute (IAB) reports that around 15,000 positions are lost each month in the industry. This downturn affects numerous managers, with their numbers rising by 14 percent across industries within a year, according to recent employment data analyzed exclusively by the Handelsblatt for the Federal Employment Agency.

However, the arms industry remains unaffected by this downward trend. Contrary to other sectors that are downsizing, German arms manufacturers are actively hiring, actively seeking new managers. According to Handelsblatt information and a survey conducted among several German arms companies, there is high demand for managers in several areas.

This overview explores the profiles of managers that companies like Rheinmetall and Hensoldt are looking for, the benefits of a leadership position in the arms industry, and the sectors where cross-sector entrants also have good prospects.
