Arbeitsmarkt: Robra neue Vorsitzende des BA-Verwaltungsrats

Nürnberg - The Federal Employment Agency has announced that Anna Robra, a lawyer, will take up the role of new president of the agency's management board. The agency disclosed this information. Robra has been nominated by the employer side for a position on the management board of the largest German authority, and she has been a member of the self-administrative body since 2017.

She is succeeding Christina Ramb, who has moved to the Federal Chancellery. Robra is following in Ramb's footsteps as the head of the management board of the Federal Employment Agency. The 21-member management board of the agency is composed in a 50-50 split of representatives from employers, employees, and the federal government.

They decide on the budget and thus significantly influence the financial authority of the agency. Stéphanie Vorsitzende is Anja Piel, a member of the DGB executive board. The Federal Employment Agency's president is also a woman, Andrea Nahles.
