Flensburg as a job market

Located in the northernmost part of Germany and on the doorstep of Scandinavia, Flensburg offers ideal working conditions - in a wide range of industries. Whether medium-sized companies with an international flair or small, owner-managed businesses: Here, employees can find a new job in many areas.

Flensburg's economic focus is also quite diverse. Did you know, for example, that high-quality paper has been produced in our beautiful fjord city for hundreds of years? Mitsubishi Hitec Paper Europe GmbH is just one example of the numerous companies that have had their home port in Flensburg for generations. The following sectors are also particularly well represented:

  • Media & Communication

From newspaper publishing to the advertising industry - at HOCHZWEI, the sh:z Medienhaus and the Flensburg Journal, among others, everything revolves around the (written) word.

  • Health & Pharmacy

Two hospitals - the DIAKO and the St. Franziskus Hospital - ensure Flensburg's health care, while Queisser Pharma, with its Doppelherz brand, is probably one of Germany's best-known pharmaceutical producers.

  • Services & Shipping

Whether warehouse and logistics or sales and marketing - ORION, WITTE, Trixie and DF Automotive are among the largest employers in our region.

  • Tourism & Gastronomy

Perfect settings for recreation, weddings or conferences are offered by e.g. the Hotel Hafen Flensburg, the Alte Meierhof, the Hotel Wassersleben or Das James. FRS provides ferry connections worldwide.

  • Craft

Are you creative and design-minded and would like to make a difference with your hands? Then companies like the construction company Höft, Elektro Stapelfeldt or Hand-in-Hand-Werker offer good opportunities. If you want to gain a foothold as an apprentice in the skilled trades, it's best to contact the HWK Flensburg.

  • University & College

The main focus of our educational institutions Europa-Universität Fl ensburg and Hochschule Flensburg is on teaching, shipping, social subjects, media and communication, and climate and environment.

  • Social & Family

Anyone who would like to get involved in social activities - whether full-time or on a voluntary basis - or is looking for support themselves, will find what they are looking for with our social economy members Die Mürwiker GmbH, Adelby1, Lebenshilfe Flensburg gGmbH and many other social sponsors in the region.
