Commercial professions

Reliable and prudent: Handling our finances.

We offer employees the opportunity to work in commercial areas with a high degree of individual responsibility.

Colleagues are used to working to deadlines with high precision. In addition to day-to-day commercial work, exciting projects are supported from here: Reorganisations, mergers, start-ups and the integration of German companies and wind farms into SAP.

In the commercial division, we operate in accordance with various rules (including compliance rules), laws and regulations. A lot of these change repeatedly, so ongoing training is necessary. We largely cover this need with our internal education programme.
