Your ideal start with us
Congratulations, you’ve got the job! We want your onboarding at Hannover Re to be as smooth and successful as possible, so we’ve put together a series of modules that will help you get to know our #ConnectingPower culture and the world of reinsurance. The following onboarding journey applies to our Hannover office. Please note that onboarding may differ at our international locations.

Onboarding event
On your first day, you’ll join a special onboarding event where you can meet your new colleagues. You’ll get a quick introduction to the essentials (e.g. how to access the building, track your hours and request time off) so you feel ready to begin. The onboarding event takes place on the first working day of each month. If you’re joining us after that, don’t worry, we’ll make sure you get all the important Information.
Your onboarding buddy
On your first day, your onboarding buddy from the team will be there to welcome you. Together, you’ll explore everything you need to get started: your workspace, the key tools you’ll be using and your first tasks. You’ll also get to meet your colleagues, get a feel for how things work and find out who to reach out to whenever you have a question.
Your Onboarding plan
In collaboration with the team, your manager has developed a role‑specific onboarding plan that will walk you through your new tasks and help you settle into the role.
"My start at Hannover Re was very good. I particularly liked the fact that my colleagues took a lot of time for me during my orientation and were always willing to answer my questions. This also applied to enquiries from contacts with whom I had no previous experience."
Your 100-day review
After three months, you will meet with your manager and the HR team for the so-called 100-day review. The focus is on honest feedback: What has gone well, and what could have gone better – from your perspective and ours. This way, we can easily identify areas for improvement.
ReEssentials: Onboarding programme
Reinsurance isn't something you usually learn about at university, which is why we take the time to familiarise you with the subject. We offer intensive, international induction programmes called ReEssentials to give you the best possible start. These courses provide you with a wide range of business insights, from the basics of reinsurance and the specifics of underwriting to the ins and outs of technical accounting. This will prepare you well for your respective role. Fostering our We-Spirit is a matter close to our hearts. We learn together and laugh together, and you'll enjoy our friendly atmosphere. Our ReEssentials also give you plenty of space to network, meet new people and exchange ideas. In his video, Maxi shares further insights into the ReEssentials and the professional onboarding at Hannover Re.
