Promoting Human Capital means not only developing a set of tools for evaluating potential and performance, but also and above all defining professional development paths in line with individual ambitions, motivations and competencies.

Today working for Finmeccanica means having access to a broad range of attractive and challenging professional opportunities. In terms of business dynamism, the wide range of industries and markets it operates in, its international business dimension, and investment in top employee potential, the Finmeccanica Group is practically unrivalled among Employers of Choice in Italy and abroad.

Future success will depend on our ability to identify and develop the leaders of the future, who will need to be focused on the Group?s distinctive values and share our passion and dedication to Finmeccanica products and technologies.




MAIN INITIATIVES

The priority focus of our activities in terms of human capital development over the last three years has been the definition and implementation of systems and tools for assessing and developing potential..

The Group Management System identifies key competencies and leadership qualities and makes it possible to plan professional career and managerial paths that match the growth process of the companies.
Reconciling individual aspirations and motivations with the development policies of our Companies is the starting-point for all the initiatives that target different sectors of the corporate population, while sharing the common objective of supporting Finmeccanica Group´s growth as a main player in the global market.


In terms of developing competencies and professional mobility within the Group, Finmeccanica has launched a series of particularly innovative initiatives:

Change:Challenge Hunters Aiming at New Generation Excellence

A development path aimed at the "Rockets" segment, young employees under 35 years of age identified by Group Companies as having high growth potential and an international profile.

The aim of the project is to expand the direct knowledge of these young people, encourage their integration at group level and measure their ability to become pro-actively involved in particularly relevant business areas personally selected by Top Management.

Job Posting

An innovative and effective tool that enables all Group employees to take new opportunities for professional growth in line with their own competencies and aspirations.

The project was launched through an internal communications campaign and is open to all Group employees. It begins with the definition of a vacant position and enables candidates to apply by filling in a special form on the Intergroup dedicated portal.

An assessment process identifies resources suited to the new post in one of the Operational Companies. These Group invests considerable resources in training these individuals, who are then assigned to the destination company identified.

The main objectives of the initiative are as follows.

  • To encourage intergroup mobility via an internal Job Posting system that is also a factor of cultural integration;

  • To ensure an effective Job Rotation mechanism and the exchange of professional competencies within the Group;

  • To provide opportunities for managerial and professional development by investing in Resources with skills corresponding to the profiles required.
