# List of Executive Offices companies in Germany

Tamtam tracks 55 Executive Offices companies headquartered in Germany. This list ranks the 50 largest by number of employees on LinkedIn, led by Freie und Hansestadt Hamburg, Stadt Köln and Federal Office for Migration and Refugees. Their median headcount is 415. The most common headquarters are Berlin (7), Cologne (4) and Hamburg (4).

These German executive offices are primarily public administration bodies, ranging from city and state administrations to federal ministries and agencies. The organizations listed are generally large, with employee counts often in the thousands. For example, Freie und Hansestadt Hamburg is a public law corporation, Stadt Köln is a public administration managing city services, and the Federal Office for Migration and Refugees focuses on asylum applications and integration. Other examples include the Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Energy, addressing economic and climate action, and the Federal Office of Administration, providing central services for the federal government.

A clear pattern among these executive offices is their focus on public service and governmental functions across various levels. Many of the entities, such as the Federal Office for Migration and Refugees (founded 1953), the Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Energy (founded 1949), and the Federal Office of Administration (founded 1960), were established in the mid-20th century. While headquarters are spread across Germany, there is a concentration in cities like Berlin and Cologne.

## How this list is built

Every company on this list has a Tamtam company profile. The industry is the one the company gives on LinkedIn; categories such as SaaS or fintech are classified by Tamtam's AI from the company's website and LinkedIn page; and the headquarters city must match the company's own address. Companies are ranked by the number of employees on LinkedIn, and the list is refreshed every night. Classifications can be wrong, so treat the list as a starting point rather than an official ranking. Last updated Nov 12, 2026.
