Gross fixed salary per year for a Junior Dispatcher (0 to 2 years of experience, often straight out of the Kaufmann/frau für Spedition und Logistikdienstleistung apprenticeship or a comparable career change) at a German freight or logistics SMB. Munich, Frankfurt, Hamburg and the Rhine-Main area pull the range up, similarly to the mid-level band; the East and rural regions trend lower. A relevant apprenticeship with real dispatch exposure, early command of a TMS (Transics, Soloplan, TimoCom) or a starter ADR dangerous-goods certificate pull the figure up; a purely administrative background or warehouse experience with no live route responsibility pulls it down. Shift and night allowances under the applicable collective agreement or works agreement come on top; a structured OTE does not exist for this role.
