| Language notes | | ich bin + profession |
| | Ich bin Versandleiter (von Beruf) I am a distribution manager (by profession). Ich bin Personalleiter I am a personnel manager. Ich bin Verkaufsleiter I am a sales manager. Ich bin Einkaufsleiterin I am a chief buyer (woman).
When stating your profession you don't need to use the word a, an (called an article) as you do in English.
Where the article is used, for example: Ich bin die Produktionsekretärin, it's to state your position in the firm not your profession.
Note that by adding -in onto the end of some nouns, you can make them feminine, for example: Sekretärin, Einkaufsleiterin.
