• Personnel Cost Steering: Together with the relevant stakeholders, you will shape and optimise our personnel cost planning and steering processes. You will analyse forecasts and economic interdependencies, create transparency around cost developments, identify relevant trends, and translate these into concrete recommendations and sound decision-making bases for the strategic planning of future salary budgets.
