I was wondering if someone could either point me towards a website where I could calculate my potential 'take home pay'/spending money for a job I'm applying for in Munich, or give me information on how to calculate it.

Many thanks.

A pretty simple online one is here:

A more complex shareware product with full evaluation functionality is
Martin Hentrich's "Nettoeinkommen pro":

Substract approx 40 - 45 percent for taxes and social insurances from your
gross salary (The employer pays the same amount for your social insurances
that you do, but this payment is not quoted as part of the gross salary and
not substracted from it).

This calculation should give a very rough idea for unmarried with a typical
white collar job income which is not too much over the top. There is no
website which can calculate actual taxes, because there are too many
factors that go into it, and the calculation is very complicated. Wait
after your first tax assessment for a full year.
