The headhunter for management positions in the nursing and social care sector
Shortage of skilled workers in the care and social sector
Demographic change is particularly noticeable in the care sector. On average, people's life expectancy has increased by 7 years in the last 30 years. There are currently around 3.3 million people in need of care in Germany. The trend is rising, as the risk of serious illness or the need for care increases with age. In 2015, there were around 30,000 vacancies in the care sector and the demand for qualified care professionals will continue to rise in the coming years. This makes it all the more important to find well-trained specialists today and to retain them in the company in the long term. Managers are needed who are not only well trained, but who can also challenge, encourage and motivate their employees.
