MLP as an attractive employer and partner

Against this background, "MLP as an attractive employer and partner" is a separate strategic field of action for our sustainability work in order to make work at and for MLP more attractive and develop it further.

MLP client consultants act as entrepreneurs within the company and have numerous opportunities for further development - a high level of quality in the training offered is an indispensable prerequisite for this. The MLP Corporate University (german only), which is based at our headquarters in Wiesloch is the centre for the development and the performance of training for consultants, office managers and the heads of university teams.

The continuous development of the further training courses offered to our independent client advisors at our Corporate University, which is tailored to the individual training needs of the advisors with tailored, modular modules, as well as the realignment in the university segment with a clear focus on recruiting young advisors, all contribute to this.

In addition, we support the productivity of our independent client advisors through various advisory applications and through our back-office service at Group headquarters in Wiesloch.

MLP offers its employees an open and team-oriented corporate culture, which is underlined by a family-friendly personnel policy and attractive additional benefits. To this end, the Human Resources department has formulated an internal concept with personnel management fields of action derived from the existing framework conditions, such as coping with demographic challenges, continuous improvement of personnel management processes, digitalisation, employer attractiveness, etc: These are among others:
