Gross fixed salary per year for a Junior Executive Assistant (0-2 years of experience, often a recent graduate or a Kauffrau/-mann für Büromanagement apprenticeship leaver moving into their first assistance role) at a German SMB. Berlin, Munich and Hamburg pull the range upward; regional and rural locations trend downward. A profile with prior office-admin or reception experience, strong written German and at least conversational English sits at the top of the band; someone with no prior office exposure sits at the bottom. The role carries no variable-compensation component at this level.
