Our most important resource – your energy

Your energy is our most important resource so that we can achieve our strategic goals together. That's why we support your sustainable growth and help you to strengthen the skills that are important for your role and your level of experience while also helping you to grow personally.

Development is a self-driven process – it starts with you!

We believe that learning takes place primarily through practical experience in day-to-day work.

In addition, we offer a space for dialogue with colleagues and experts as well as targeted training opportunities. In this way, we create an environment in which you can continuously develop.

  • Professional onboarding is particularly important to us so that you feel like a valued member of #TeamRWE from the moment you sign your contract and can settle into your new role as quickly as possible. Your onboarding is individually tailored to your level of experience and considers your new role and the requirements of the RWE company where you are starting.

  • Your individual development plan is a tool for thinking about, planning and communicating your personal development path. Together with your manager and the support of colleagues from the HR department, your personal development plan is created. This requires a clear understanding of the status quo, realistic and specific goals and concrete measures to achieve them.

  • In order to develop all employees in line with our corporate strategy, our RWE training portfolio includes programmes for employees and managers. These include learning-near-the-job measures such as 360° feedback, mentoring and (peer) coaching as well as learning-on-the-job measures by expanding your tasks through project work and job discovery through secondments or job rotation – customised to your individual needs.

    We also offer you flexible learning formats such as web-based training, e-learning programmes and seminars on topics that you can apply directly in your day-to-day work – such as digital tools, time management, communication or agile working methods.

    The mental and physical health of our employees is an integral component of successfully coping with the challenging demands of today's working world. For this reason, RWE also offers you formats to familiarise yourself with and implement the various options for creating a healthy working day. Here, the focus is on mental, social and physical health and formats are offered on healthy eating, exercise and stress management.

  • If you are already a manager or can imagine a career in management, we support you. We offer a wide range of development opportunities aimed at strengthening leadership skills and promoting professional development in line with your needs. It's not about acquiring one-off knowledge, but about your continuous self-reflection and personal development.

    We also actively encourage all #TeamRWE employees by offering counselling, keynote speeches and workshops to support them individually in their personal development and the development of social and entrepreneurial skills, depending on their level of experience. As health and safety are fundamental aspects of RWE's corporate culture, we also provide learning opportunities for mental, physical and social health.

  • In an increasingly dynamic environment, RWE is driving forward the energy transition for a sustainable future. We are looking for ambitious and passionate colleagues who are ready for the next step in their career. The talent programmes offer you the opportunity to improve your own skills, expand your own network, increase your visibility within RWE and advance your personal career, be it an expert or management career.

  • Discover new perspectives within RWE through job visitis, job swaps, rotations and secondments. Each experience offers a unique chance to improve your skills, gain valuable insights and broaden your professional experience. It's a great opportunity to expand your network, exchange interesting ideas, and foster cross-team, cross-functional and cross-location collaboration within RWE.

“My biggest learning during my Secondment was that I must have been British at heart all along! I quickly adapted to the UK work culture and felt right at home. This experience taught me the importance of being open to new environments and how smoothly transitions can occur when there’s a genuine alignment with the culture.”

“One component of our HR map at RWE Power is the development and retention of our employees. In our workshops on this topic, we received feedback that we should facilitate job rotations like this even more frequently. It's a great opportunity to take on new challenges and gain new experiences. Not only do you get to know great colleagues from across #TeamRWE, but you can also develop yourself individually. It's worth it and I can only recommend it.”

“Definitely. It's always worth thinking outside the box and getting to see things from a different point of view. At Offshore Wind, we recently reorganised our performance management and a job rotation was part of my personal development plan. This also gave me the great opportunity to see one of our power plants and experience an opencast mine - it gives you a completely different perspective and it's really impressive what happens there.”

“Every two years, I take it upon myself to get out of my comfort zone and learn something new. On the one hand, this allows me to network even better within the Group and get to know other business units, and on the other hand, it gives me new motivation.”

Thomas, Head of S&T Risk Controlling Trading
