Career
Coaching career
After Bungert chose to hang up his boots after the 2018-19 season, he joined Mainz 05 as part of a trainee program to work at the club.[3] At the end of November 2019, Bungert joined newly appointed head coach Achim Beierlorzer's staff, where he would act as assistant coach.[4] He returned to his trainee program in July 2020.[5]
On August 15, 2021, Bungert had to step in as deputy assistant coach ahead of a match against RB Leipzig, as head coach Bo Svensson's two assistants were both in COVID-19 quarantine. Mainz sensationally won 1-0 with a reserve team, as a large part of the squad was in quarantine.[6] In November 2021, Bungert became the club's first ever Club Ambassador.[7]
On January 1, 2024, Bungert was again promoted to the role of assistant coach, this time under Jan Siewert.[8] After the end of the season, Mainz announced that Bungert would not be an assistant coach in the new season and would take on another, unnamed, role at the club.[9]
