Working in Mannheim

Mannheim is the cultural and economic centre of the Rhine-Neckar metropolitan region and the seventh largest metropolitan area in Germany with 2.4 million inhabitants and 792,000 employees.

Approximately 72% of Mannheim’s workforce are employed in the service sector. In addition to innovative biotechnology companies and creative service providers, there are many ultra-specialised software and IT companies.

Mannheim’s industry has thrived upon the business of multinationals such as ABB, Daimler AG, John Deere, Roche Diagnostics and Siemens for decades.

Numerous emerging, globally active mid-sized companies like Fuchs Petrolub and Pepperl & Fuchs are also located in Mannheim.
Due to SAP and other leading large corporations such as BASF and Freudenberg, the metropolitan region is increasingly becoming a magnet for multimedia and high-tech service providers.
