Details
In the long-term, the Sparkasse needs to fill 30,000 new positions. Therefore, they launched the possibly biggest cultural change in its history. As an employer, enjoyment, support and success are key strengths that define their employer positioning from 2024 onwards, which is visible through their communication: an image campaign supports brand image, a recruitment campaign provides clear incentives for applicants and an internal campaign involves and motivates existing employees. With success: the perception as attractive employer is massively strengthened, applications are doubled, and employee participation reached an unprecedented level.
