Are you ready to constantly develop and challenge yourself? Then the General Management Traineeship at NN Group is the perfect start of your career. NN Group, as an organisation, aims to make financial services more personal and relevant for our customers. That’s why you matter is our core and that’s why we are looking for people who care about others, who take initiative and responsibility, and who don’t give up until they succeed. That’s why we are looking for you!
For this programme, we are looking for graduates with different backgrounds, who want to apply their talents in a business context and who understand the needs of our customers. During your programme you will learn about insurance and other parts of our organisation.
Within the General Management track you'll have two assignments of 6 months and one assignment of 1 year.

Your assignment could be in Marketing, Project & Change, HR, Corporate Relations, Data- and process management etc. Your added value will be in problem analysis and problem solving, communication, motivating people and successfully managing projects.

Through the trainees in your network you will learn about all the different business units and what is top of mind throughout the company. You will also follow an intensive personal development programme together. From your team on your different rotations you will learn about the content of your specific assignment at an accelerated pace.
Your Responsibilities
What kind of assignments can you expect?
Project management
As NN is acquiring VIVAT (parent company to Reaal and Zwitserleven) you will work on integrating the two companies. You will work together with different workstreams, differing from HR to IT to Finance, to develop a strategy for the integration. During this assignment, you will have a large stakeholder field to manage, developing both your content and soft skills, while adding value for your customer by realizing economies of scale for NN.
Leading a team
At the end of every year, a part of the Dutch population chooses to switch to a new health insurance provider. During this assignment you have to set up a temporary team – both hiring and firing staff – and lead that team through some of the busiest months of the year. This team will be one of the main touchpoints that potential customers use to buy their insurance. Your responsibilities include everything from performance management, hiring strategies and target setting to planning, managing stakeholders and motivating your team. Overall, this is an excellent (first) experience for leading a team and being responsible for your own, clear targets.

As a Global Risk Trainee, I’m on a three-year program, which involves completing a different assignment each year in a different department or business unit. The variety suits me. The traineeship is not just about your education, it’s also about your personality and people skills.
I wanted to start my career at a company that was able to maintain its favorable reputation over the years, and where people really matter. I found that at NN. As an intern for HR Business Projects International, I am in contact with people from different countries and backgrounds.
