Your contact person

Dr. Siegl, Tel. -2524, will be happy to answer any questions you may have.

The gender-specific use of a job title has no influence on the actual selection for the position. Equal opportunities, inclusion, acceptance of differences, and mutual appreciation are very important to us. We show appreciation and respect to all employees (m/f/d) at all times - regardless of gender, nationality, ethnic origin, religion or worldview, disability, age, as well as sexual orientation and identity. The LGL actively promotes the equality of all employees (m/f/d), in line with the Free State of Bavaria as employer.

The equal opportunities officer will only participate in job interviews upon request of the applicant (Art. 17 Para. 3 BayGIG). All our positions are generally suitable for part-time work, provided that job sharing ensures the performance of the described tasks. We particularly welcome applications from women and men in areas of our office where they are currently significantly underrepresented. In areas where women are significantly underrepresented compared to men, women are particularly encouraged to apply (Art. 7 Para. 3 BayGlG).

The inclusion of (severely) disabled employees (m/f/d) is also a great concern to us. We already employ more severely disabled people than legally required. They will be given preferential consideration in the selection process if they are essentially equally qualified. At the LGL, we see diversity as an enrichment, which is why we naturally welcome applications from people of all nationalities.
