750 women, one mission: Our women@Rheinmetall network wants to actively help shape the future of Rheinmetall – with project ideas from within the community. The mission of the community is clearly defined for the next few years: To create a space where the femininity and potential of every person is seen as a key contribution to Rheinmetall’s business success. Today you can read why Nicole Täffner sees her role in the core team of women@Rheinmetall as an opportunity for professional advancement. Nicole Täffner, a process manager in Finance, joined the network at the end of 2022. What she especially enjoys about being on the core team is working in a team without hierarchies. “Everyone is welcome to contribute their creativity and to be involved,” she says. “By talking to women from different divisions, hierarchy levels and age groups, I gain a wide range on insights into the company – and that’s a huge inspiration.” At the same time, the close dialogue presents an opportunity for professional advancement: “The network gives us the chance to let others know when management positions open up and thereby to contribute towards getting more women into different management levels. That’s an important element in promoting diversity at Rheinmetall.”

The mission of the community is clearly defined for the next few years: To create a space where the femininity and potential of every person is seen as a key contribution to Rheinmetall’s business success. Sabine Weber, Director of Global Project Purchasing at the Power Systems division, was one of the community’s first members. Following an interview on women’s empowerment, she was asked if she would like to get involved in the women’s community – “and so I became a founding member,” she says. The more we achieved, the more seriously they took our network. We still have a long way to go, but it’s wonderful to see how a handful of women can get so many balls rolling.” A goal for the next level: Be more international. This is an area where Sabine Weber is actively involved on account of her role at Rheinmetall locations all over the world. “I recently took advantage of a business trip to India to speak to the female personnel at Rheinmetall Automotive’s site in Pune as an ambassador for our network. It is important to me to speak to women at other sites and to encourage them to start up local projects that we in the core team can manage and support remotely.” Find out more about our shapers of change:
Focus on our female colleagues - International Women in Engineering Day Rheinmetall is taking responsibility in a changing world. As an integrated technology group, we have excellent conditions to help shape the transformation of the markets and achieve our ambitious medium-term targets for sustainable profitable growth. Our Engineers play a vital role in this process. 21% of our workforce are highly qualified and talented women. They hold key positions such as Head of Configuration & Life Cycle Management or Head Of Hydrogen Program. They are Vice Presidents Project Management or Strategy & Product Management, Heads of Process Management or Process Planning. They are standing their ground as Team Lead System Safety Engineering or Plant Manager. Just to name a few of the challenges that are naturally handled by female engineers within our group. Women certainly don't need special treatment these days. However, to ensure that a balanced ratio of men and women can develop in our company, we create incentives by finding flexible working time models and, in the medium and long term, by increasingly preparing suitable women for future management roles through our internal junior staff development and training programs.
Up-to-date knowledge and learning are just as critical to Rheinmetall's success as the diversity of our company. As we live it, we also increase creativity, innovation and profitability. At Rheinmetall, everyone should be able to give their best. Today, we encourage our employees to support diversity within our company. In line with the motto of German Diversity Day 2024: “Vote for diversity - 365 days a year!”. We therefore invite our people to engage in self-determined learning on the topic of diversity. In our online-training our colleagues will find a short, concise video on each of the three dimensions of diversity: international/intercultural, generations and gender. Further information can be found by them in the complete diversity training courses from skillsoft from our people development department. Key Facts: Rheinmetall will be advertising for voices for diversity at DDT2024 with Approx. 200 posters Approx. 5000 flyers Approx. 30 flags
