Financial administrators in Saxony-Anhalt look to recruit promising youth - Saxony-Anhalt's financial officials seek out the youth
In the German state of Saxony-Anhalt, the demand for trainees and students in its finance offices is on the rise, with 100 young people starting their training this year alone. This trend is expected to continue, as the ministry anticipates a need for around 240 trainees per year from 2030.
Last year, 24 young people began their training in Saxony-Anhalt's finance offices, while 22 embarked on their studies. These numbers are specific to the state's finance offices, and the demand for training and study places in its tax administration has increased due to demographic changes.
The ministry has announced that the Otto von Guericke University Magdeburg will be the new training location for Saxony-Anhalt's tax administration. From 2025, training for the tax administration will gradually be transferred to Magdeburg, with study places following in 2026.
The ministry of finance in Magdeburg has made these efforts in cooperation with the states of Berlin and Brandenburg. This cooperation on tax training is not new, as Brandenburg has been involved in similar initiatives with Saxony-Anhalt and Berlin in the past.
The first trainees for Saxony-Anhalt's tax administration will be welcomed in Magdeburg next Monday, marking a significant step in the state's efforts to train personnel for its finance offices. The ministry, however, did not specify the number of study places for 2026.
From 2030, the state aims to have around 240 trainees per year, indicating a continuous focus on building a skilled workforce for its finance offices. The exact details about the increase in training and study places for Saxony-Anhalt's tax administration in Magdeburg, including its current status or future projections, are not publicly available at this time.
For those seeking more specific information about this topic, it may be necessary to consult official Saxony-Anhalt government publications, the Ministry of Finance of Saxony-Anhalt, or related local administrative bodies directly.
