In 1971 he was elected a member of the People's Chamber and a member of the Committee on Agriculture, Forestry and Food Industry. He received the medal for excellent performance .

Here he worked as a member of the council for housing industry and held the function of deputy chairman of the council of the district until 1990.

When the Treuhandanstalt was created in the spring of 1990 - initially as a GDR authority, later as a privatization agency - Schröder was one of its first employees as an expert, built up the Frankfurt (Oder) branch from May 1, 1990 and worked as its head until 1992 .

He also helped to build this authority from the day it was founded on July 1, 1992. Under his leadership, the former state-owned agricultural and forestry areas in the districts of Elbe-Elster, Oberspreewald-Lausitz, Spree-Neisse, Dahme-Spree, Oder-Spree and Märkisch-Oderland were privatized. By April 2005, when Schröder retired after twelve years, more than two thirds of the forest to be privatized and a quarter of the arable land and grassland had been sold.
