Salary and benefits in sustainability management

Development opportunities
included

Advanced training and certifications, as well as attractive flexible work time options, are neck and neck as the top two benefits offered by employers. Six out of ten future employees can enjoy these benefits. Half of positions also offer the option of working from home.

In addition, professionals can enjoy a wide variety of additional benefits, in particular to improve their work/life balance and health. Bicycle leases or a Bahncard offer employees ways to get to work relaxed – as well as benefits that help shrink their employers’ CO2 footprint.

Sustainability is a young discipline where a large number of new positions are being created. It offers interesting professional development opportunities. In an environment where many specifications are changing or being added, however, sustainability managers always need to stay up-to-date on their field.
