After being a lecturer and then senior lecturer at the University of Warwick from 2002 to 2006, she returned to Germany as a professor at the University of Augsburg, where she held the Chair for Analysis and Geometry. She moved to Albert-Ludwigs-Universität Freiburg in 2011 and then to Trinity College Dublin in 2022.[2]

In 2009, Wendland was given the Medal for special merits for Bavaria in a united Europe by the Bavarian government.[2] In 2010 she was an invited speaker at the International Congress of Mathematicians, with a talk entitled "On the geometry of singularities in quantum field theories". In 2012 she became one of the inaugural fellows of the American Mathematical Society.[3] She was elected to the Akademie der Wissenschaften und der Literatur in 2013.[2] In 2023 she was elected a fellow of Trinity College Dublin.[4]
