In order to implement our global "We create chemistry" strategy and achieve the demanding growth targets set by BASF, we rely above all else on our employees. We, the HR team, bear a significant responsibility here because we play a key role in living out our strategic motto "excellent employees, excellent work conditions and excellent managers". This is how we create value for our company.

Whether you work at our HR unit in Ludwigshafen or as an HR business partner at one of our other sites - you are part of a global team. You can network with colleagues and benefit from their valuable knowledge and expertise.
