Gross fixed salary per year for a Senior Logistics Manager (12+ years of experience, typically with multi-site or international supply-chain responsibility) at a German SMB or Mittelstand company. Munich, Frankfurt, Stuttgart and Hamburg pull the range up further; a single-site, regional scope trends toward the lower end. Multi-site responsibility, an international supply chain, a completed S&OP build-up or a multi-site WMS or ERP migration pull toward the top end. The role usually has no structural variable component; some employers pay an annual bonus of 10-20 % on OTIF, inventory or freight-cost targets, occasionally with a company car.
