What you can expect from joining Helvengo - Our values

Passion: Entrepreneurship is our passion. To deliver the best possible service to our customers & brokers, we think and act like entrepreneurs ourselves and would like to empower you to think like so as well. This is why most of our roles are eligible to Helvengo’s employee participation program, where you will be able to become a shareholder of the company.

Execution: Our ambitious goals are only possible to accomplish if we prioritize, focus and deliver as a team. The challenges that we will be facing will be diverse in nature - so will be the international team that you are solving the challenges with. Cultural initiatives like weekly cooking and TGIF sessions ensure to stay connected and to have fun along the way.

Resilience: Working in a startup is not a sprint, it is a marathon. This means we work hard and do not give up, but also take care of ourselves to be in it for the long term. Regular team sports events, flexible office setup, unlimited holidays and the possibility to choose your own “world office” for one week per quarter are only some of the perks that you will be able to enjoy at Helvengo.

Integrity: We believe that we can only excel, if we get better every day - both personally and professionally. This means that transparent communication and feedback is not just a buzzword on the wall, but a weekly routine. Besides that every employee has a yearly development budget available to enable further growth in the area of your liking.

Courage: We are not just the next big blue insurance company, we want to be different and challenge the existing incumbents. Chasing after audacious ideas is what gets us excited every day, while we are very much aware that from time to time, you need to take a step back, reflect, admit failure and re-start to succeed in the long term.
