Women@structured_Finance: We're looking for YOU!

International project and export finance is our business, and is just as diverse as the entire #teamIPEX! The proportion of women in our workforce is already 48%. Our gender balance is wholly intentional, because we know that mixed teams achieve the best results. When selecting new colleagues, we do not consider what gender you identify with. The factors that are important to us are character, skills and motivation. We value experience – but when it comes to filling certain gaps, we’re here to provide guidance and support to prepare you thoroughly for your ideal role.

We create space for careers

Many possibilities: KfW IPEX-Bank offers a wide range of career development opportunities across various departments, and we aim to tailor careers to individual needs.
Promoting diversity: The bank attaches great importance to diversity and inclusion, which creates a positive working environment and makes us more successful as a company.
Flexible forms of work: We support flexible working hours and mobile working options, enabling a better work-life balance.
Mentoring programmes: There are special programmes that support women in their professional development and help them to build networks.

We stay on top of the latest trends and focus on modern work. What changes have occurred in the working environment in recent years? Who needs what to be able to shape their job in the most effective and efficient way?

Equal opportunities!

KfW IPEX-Bank promotes equal opportunities and remuneration. We're therefore very pleased to have been certified twice for our commitment to #FairPay!

1) In 2024, an external, independent pay equity analysis was carried out by MRH Trowe & Lurse GmbH for the first time. The result: KfW IPEX-Bank has an adjusted gender pay gap* of approx. 2%. Consequently, KfW IPEX-Bank is considerably below the figure for the overall economy (6%) and the EU benchmark (5%).

2) In addition, we were awarded the “Universal Fair Pay Check” by FPI Fair Pay Innovation Lab gGmbH as a “Universal Fair Pay Analyst” - another sign of gender-neutral and equitable pay.

What does fair pay mean?

Fair pay stands for fair and transparent remuneration, where equal work is paid equally - regardless of gender, origin or other social characteristics. Unfortunately, this is still not a reality everywhere, as the adjusted gender pay gap in Germany averages 6%.

*The adjustment is based primarily on the consideration of comparable activities and responsibilities as well as the age of the employees
