Executives: German arms manufacturers are looking for profiles like these
The situation on the job market is tense - the defense industry is an exception. A Handelsblatt survey shows what opportunities are available to executives.
In Germany, the job market is in crisis, with the number of unemployed standing just under three million. According to the Institute for Employment Research (IAB), around 15,000 positions are lost in industry each month, affecting many managers. The number of unemployed managers has increased by 14% across industries over the past year, according to recent employment data exclusively evaluated by the Federal Employment Agency for Handelsblatt. However, one sector remains unaffected by this downward trend: the arms industry.
While other industries are cutting jobs, German arms manufacturers are hiring and actively seeking new managers. Handelsblatt reports and a survey among several German arms companies indicate a high demand in several areas. The profiles of managers sought by companies like Rheinmetall and Hensoldt, the benefits of taking a leadership position in the arms industry, and the opportunities for cross-industry entrants are all detailed in the report, providing a comprehensive overview of the current state of the arms industry job market in Germany.
