Jobsharing

What is Jobsharing?

At Mercedes-Benz Mobility, we offer a variety of flexible working time models tailored to the needs of our employees. In addition to part-time, flexitime and mobile working, job sharing is a particularly exciting concept: two employees share a full-time position and take on the tasks and responsibilities of one position together, working either in parallel or alternately.

Not only does this model allow for greater flexibility in working hours and personal life, but it also opens up the possibility of taking on challenging leadership roles that would often not be possible in a part-time position.

But the benefits of jobsharing go far beyond flexibility. Discover for yourself what our tandem couples have experienced, how they organise their day-to-day work and what really matters in a shared position.

Read the interview to find out more about their different motivations and how they share their roles.
