Jutta Paulus (née Wege, born 9 May 1967) is a German politician Bündnis 90/Die Grünen and natural scientist, as well as former managing director of the laboratory LAUS GmbH in Kirrweiler/Pfalz.

At the same time, together with two chemists, she set up Labor LAUS GmbH in Neustadt an der Weinstraße as a laboratory for environmental and pollutant analysis, which moved to Kirrweiler in 2006.

From 2015, she worked in the Quality and Project Management staff unit and as Head of the Central Archive at the Marienhausklinikum Hetzelstift until she moved into the European Parliament in June 2019.

During her time as a student at the University of Marburg, Paulus worked in the AStA departments for Internationalism and Ecology.

In 2003, Paulus resigned from the party due to her differences with the policies of Bündnis 90/Die Grünen in the red-green coalition.

In January 2018, at the federal delegates' conference of Bündnis 90/Die Grünen in Hanover, she was elected to the 16-member party council, of which she was a member until November 2019.
