For reference: the statutory minimum wage in Germany has stood at €13.90 gross per hour since January 1, 2026 — roughly €2,410 gross a month for a full-time role at 40 hours/week. (BMAS: Mindestlohn steigt zum 1. Januar 2026 auf 13,90 Euro)

Gross fixed salary per year for a Junior Fleet Manager or Fleet Coordinator (1 to 3 years of experience, often stepping up from a dispatch, logistics or fleet-administration role, or straight after a relevant commercial apprenticeship) at a German SMB (fleet size up to roughly 100-150 vehicles, or a supporting role on a larger fleet). Munich, Frankfurt, Stuttgart and Hamburg pull the range up; rural regions and the east pull it down. Early exposure to a fleet-management system (FMS) or a licence-check tool, plus a background in leasing or logistics dispatch, pulls the figure up; a purely administrative background with no fleet-specific exposure pulls it down. The role usually has no structural variable component.
